On offer here is a VERY rare Double LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called "The Beatles" (more commonly known as 'The White Album') and is an ORIGINAL UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press DARK Apple labels!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER BEATLES LPs OF ALL TIME AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE RAREST LPs ON THE APPLE LABEL, AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS INCREDIBLE DOUBLE LP IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL HUGE POSTER, 2-RECORDS, 4 COLOUR 'PRINTS', 2 BLACK APPLE INNERS, AND VERY LOW 'NUMBERED' (0526912) TOP OPENING GATEFOLD COVER!!!!

THIS DOUBLE LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE, WITH ULTRA RARE 1/1/1/2 MATRIXES (MOST DONT!)!!!!  SOME PEOPLE ODDLY BELIEVE THE EMI TEXT ON THE LABELS MAKES A DIFFERENCE (I HAVE NEVER HELD THIS VIEW - ESPECIALLY WHEN A LOW NUMBERED '0002902' COPY RECENTLY SOLD WITH THIS TEXT ON EVERY LABEL!) - BUT IT IS THERE TO SEE, AND I NEED NOT MENTION IT FURTHER.  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS DOUBLE LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION - AND CLEARLY HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  THE POSTER IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION (UNSPLIT - AND A 100% ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS POSTER, NOT A LATER SWOPPED ONE!), THE 4 'COLOUR PRINTS' ARE ALSO IN AWESOME CONDITION (AGAIN - THESE ARE 100% ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS INSERTS - AND NOT LATER SWOPPED ONES!), THE BLACK INNERS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION (NO SPLITS!), THE RECORDS ARE IN BRILLIANT CONDITION (AND CLEARLY HAVENT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!) - AND EVEN THE GATEFOLD COVER IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION, WITH VERY SHINY LAMINATE AND NO YELLOWING FOR ONCE!!!! THIS DOUBLE LP EVEN HAS ITS ORIGINAL BLANK 'SPACER' USED TO SEPARATE EACH GROUP OF 4 PRINTS IN THE PACKING PROCESS - WHICH IS SOMETHING YOU ALMOST NEVER SEE NOW!!!! 

IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING, THAT THE ULTRA RARE 'SPACER' IS 100% GENIUNE IN ALL RESPECTS!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST OFTEN FAKED PARTS OF A WHITE ALBUM - BUT IT IS EASY TO CHECK TO CONFIRM AUTHENITICITY!!!!  THE 'SPACER' IS MADE OF THIN PAPER, IS LIGHTLY AGED (WHICH CANNOT BE FAKED) AND HAS A LIGHTLY TEXTURED BACK AND SMOOTH FRONT (FAKE SPACERS DON'T!)!!!!  SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THE SPACER WITH THIS LP IS 100% GENIUNE!!!!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS DARK APPLE LABELS, 1ST PRESS 1/1/1/2 MATRIXES, 1ST PRESS 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT, BLACK INNER SLEEVES, 1ST PRESS POSTER, 1ST PRESS 4 'COLOUR PRINTS', AND 1ST PRESS TOP OPENING 'NUMBERED' (0526912) FULLY LAMINATED FLIPBACK 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' COVER!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!  The records are pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The matrix numbers are YEX 709-1, YEX 710-1, YEX 711-1 & YEX 712-2!!!!  The Cat. No is PCS 7067/68 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press DARK Apple labels (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK Stereo 1st Pressing!!!!  All the tracks are Pure quality Beatles at their best!!!! Any fan of The Beatles, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

BOTH record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THESE RECORDS HAVENT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s Double LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and BOTH records have NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, only 2 or 3 VERY light scufflines, NO SOUNDING MARKS AT ALL, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  ALL SIDES RETAIN EVERY BIT OF THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is great to find that the playing of the records are as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  They play with NO pops, barely ANY clicks AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY low level background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  And because these records clearly havent been played much AT ALL - the sound quality is simply SUPERB, with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The records must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  WHAT A BRILLIANT SET OF RECORDS!!!!  Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  BOTH records also come in what looks to be their ORIGINAL Black inner sleeves which are in SUPERB condition - with NO edge splits, NO centre hole splits, and NO repairs either!!!!  However - although these black inners have EVERY SINGLE correct characteristic for 1st Press inner sleeves (one centre hole, flipback construction, etc!), they look a bit too 'fresh' for my liking, and so could well be re-pro inners!!!!  The ULTRA RARE Poster and 4 Colour 'Prints' are all in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) - and clearly haven't EVER left the cover!!!  WHAT A BRILLIANT SET OF INSERTS!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Gatefold TOP Opening FULLY Laminated Flipback LOW 'Numbered' Cover is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (apart from the usual laminate ONLY fold loss which is always here - and side words PERFECT!), NO grubbyness, only VERY slight corner wear, NO splits, barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), VERY shiny laminate, NO rips, NO tears, only 2 or 3 VERY minor indentations, NO yellowing, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The TOP opening edges are beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the laminated inside of the cover is in SUPERB condition with NO writing, VERY nice flipbacks, STUNNING shiny 'mirror-like' laminate, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!!  The LOW Number '0526912' number on the cover front is PERFECTLY printed (see picture) - and the raised lettering of 'The Beatles' on the cover front is in PERFECT order with NO grubbyness AT ALL!!!!  The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT COVER!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
