BEATLES WHITE ALBUM 1968 SWBO-101 SCRANTON PRESSING WITH ALL 7 RARE LABEL ERRORS AND PRISTINE LABELS WITH NM PHOTOS & POSTER
THE BEATLES White Album 2-LP Gatefold vinyl set 1968 First Press SWBO-101 Stereo
*****Please read everything carefully below so you know exactly the rarity you are buying*****
Numbered A2074334 Embossed Original 1968 U.S. Scranton pressing of The Beatles 'White Album'. This is the rare and highly sought after pressing with 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 error copies had already entered the marketplace. The glossy records show major play and deep scratches on sides 3 & 4, which may cause skips. Sides 1 & 2 look much better and show less play with only minor scratches. The labels are absolutely stunning with NO writing and NO stickers. The outer/inner spine are completely intact. There are NO SEAM SPLITS, NO repaired seams, with NO WRITING on the front, back or inside the sleeve. The spindle holes are perfect. The Original thick-stock portrait photos are beautifully nice. The original poster is exceptional with no pin holes. The cover is totally intact after 52 years old with one small stain. The inside gatefold shows many age spots and stains (see photo). The original inner sleeves are nice. A machine stamped ? with the initials IAM indicates that the record was pressed at the Scranton, Pennsylvania plant. 'IAM' stood for the International Association of Machinists union whose members worked at the Scranton plant.
This is as nice a starter set with ALL 7 ERRORS and NO SEAM SPLITS with NM Photos and Poster for under $200.

Here's very invaluable information on how The 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
(with no letter prefix)
Beginning around 210,000 to up 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 around 2,000,000 are prefixed with an “A” but it's a thinner “A” then used earlier.
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, and some with a large 'A'.
For the final numbers over 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with a wide “A"
