Description

Here is another MINT STILL SEALED BEATLES or BEATLES-RELATED LP from my collection. Please check my other auctions for others.

In this auction:

 

·       “BAND ON THE RUN” by Paul McCartney & Wings

·       This is Apple Records SO - 3415.

·       This record was originally issued December 5, 1973.  

·       This LP is in MINT STILL SEALED CONDITION. It is STILL in its ORIGINAL SHRINK WRAP. The Shrink Wrap has “breathe holes”. This LP has a “DESIGNATED PROMO” punch hole near the top right corner.

·       The shrink wrap has the PAUL McCARTNEY/WINGS ROUND BLUE STICKER on it. 

·       This LP is an APPLE RECORDS PRESSING.  How do I know this, since the LP is still sealed? I recall maybe 10-12 years I won a couple of sealed Beatles LPs from Perry Cox, and he had stated that they had green Capitol labels (issued 1969-1971). The shrink wrap was split about 5-6 inches in the middle of the opening with 2 pieces of clear tape at the top and bottom of the cut to avoid complete splitting of the shrink wrap. I understand that this was done to spread the opening a bit, and with a small light, shine inside to see the label.

·       I followed the same procedure on this LP. I applied 2 pieces of clear tape about 3 inches from the top and bottom of the opening and slit the shrink wrap in between the 2 pieces of tape. I had to slit the white paper inner sleeve because it did not have a die-cut center hole.  With my phone, I shined a light inside and took a photo of the label. THE LABEL IS THE PASSPORT PHOTOS CUSTOM APPLE LABEL.

·       This is most likely a second Apple Pressing issued between 1974 – 1975 because the cover is made of posterboard instead of cardboard and it has the thin PHOTO/LYRICS INNER SLEEVE. The POSTER is also included inside the cover. The poster measures 27 inches x 20 inches.    

·       So, a RECORD WITH APPLE LABELS is GUARANTEED to be INSIDE this STILL SEALED COVER.

·       This LP has been described as Sir Paul’s BEST LP with GREAT CUTS including “Band On The Run”, “Jet”, “Let Me Roll It”, and “Helen Wheels”.
