Description

BEATLES: SGT PEPPERS /1st orig "A Little Help"/2653/NM! Welcome to my record auction! I'm always finding new records to sell, so please check back often for more titles!

This is a listing for one LP record:

• Title: Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band

• Label: Capitol SMAS 2653

• Stereo/Mono: Stereo

• Stampers: A-10 / A-10 (first issue!). West coast stampers.

• Other Details: Earliest original vinyl pressing, with UNCORRECTED "A Little Help From My Friends" track listing (this was corrected to "WITH a little..." on all albums pressed after July 14, 1967). The cover is the third variation with both Maclen and NEMS credits. This is a West coast (LA) printing. There are TWO inserts included.

• Jacket Condition: EX (+) (very minor bump on upper-right-hand corner - otherwise everything is pristine)

• Disc Condition: NM (no spindle marks or any other signs of play - pristine!!)

Grading: I use the following grades: NM, EX, VG+, VG, G, F, P. Sometimes, if the record is very borderline, I will use the lower grade, and add a (+) in parentheses to indicate that it is an unusually nice example of this grade category.

I grade conservatively, following the Goldmine grading system standard, with the the common addition of EX as a grade to represent records falling between VG+ and NM. Please contact me if you would like more details on this grading system. I have always found Dragon Discs to have an excellent description of the "Goldmine with EX" system. You can find their description here: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Venue/6784/gradings.html

Please note that I do not use the M grade. NM is my highest grade.
307 (GS 5.3.6 (307))
