Original 1968 U.S. first pressing of The Beatles 'White Album' with low number 0017740... This is the rare and highly sought after early pressing containing all 7 printing errors on the labels.
Upon release of the album, John Lennon noticed these mistakes and had them corrected immediately on future pressings but not before some of these extremely rare errors had already entered the marketplace.  Records are in VG condition with some marks and scuffing here and there. Nice playback. ALL inserts are NM. The spine is good. There is still a beautiful glossy shine on the cover. NO writing anywhere. Minimal ring wear. Gatefold is clean but completely spit top and bottom, all the way across. Original inner sleeves still intact.
All 4 color portraits are excellent, with no writing or marks. Poster completely intact and really nice, with lyrics. ALL the photos you see above are of the EXACT treasures you will receive !!

 Here are all 7 song errors on the labels:
1. "Bungalow Bill" instead of "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill"
2. "Obladi Oblada" instead of "Ob-la-di Ob-la-da"
3. "Rocky Racoon", missing the second "C" in Raccoon
4. "Goodnight" instead of "Good Night"
5. "Revolution No. 1" instead of "Revolution 1"
6. "Revolution No. 9" instead of "Revolution 9"
7. "Why Don't we do it in the road" without the question mark (?)

Here's all the invaluable information on how Beatles White Albums were numbered, and the meaning behind all the sequences

The first 25 White Albums were numbered with an “A” prefix and then a series of zeros preceding the number (e.g. A0000009). There are always seven digits following the “A” so if it was a single digit number it would be preceded by six zeroes or if it was a two digit number it would be preceded by five zeroes. It is not known what the “A” was indicative of (it may mean “printed in America” or “Apple” but neither is confirmed).

Numbers 26-99 were three digit numbers preceded with a zero and no prefix.

Numbers 100 through approximately 209,999 were preceded with the correct number of zeroes to make them a seven digit number (no letter prefix).

Beginning around 210,000 up to near 590,000, they were preceded by a zero and had an “A” prefix.

Later copies up to about 1,350,000 remain at seven digits using a leading zero if necessary and are prefixed with a large dot.

The next batch from 1,350,000 up to some point past 2,000,000 are prefixed with an “A” but it is a thinner “A” than the one previously used.

From 2,000,000 to around 2,250,000 some are prefixed with a large dot and some with the “A.”

From 2,250,000 up to 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with the abbreviation for number (i.e. “No.”). On some of these the “o” in “No.” is raised with the period below it instead of beside it.

For the final numbers over 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with a wide “A.”
