Description
Very Rare and sought after Beatles LP
It is the almost impossible Third Pressing of Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band it is Mono on the original yellow and black labels.
Labels do not state 'Sold In UK....' a true late late pressing...1969 and the last mono ever made on the yellow and black labels.
XEX 637-1
XEX 638-1
In 1969 only one record was issued/reissued in Mono on the yellow and black label. It was only available for around 1 month in shops and was withdrawn and The new style record labels (The EMI one box) were introduced. These Mono reissues of sgt pepper hardly sold what with Stereo being all the rage and Mono pretty much dead and gone. The 1 box mono issues are highly sought because so few of them were produced and sold...but these 3rd press last ever mono issues on the yellow and black labels sold even less and were available for a much shorter time....seriously rare. I have looked back through ebay and sites that track records sold on ebay and only 3 of these have sold in the last 5 years...so compare it to the xex 606-1 press of revolver that you can guarentee is always available but considered very rare...this is a seriously rare pressing.
Also Includes the Original 'Patents Pending' White inner sleeve and cutouts card insert.Appart from this being a very rare item, and not many of these exist, it is also in really great condition, sleeve is flat and clean still has a nice shine to it, corners have minor wear as does opening edge, spine has only very minor wear...still fully readable, inner sleeve has light creasing but is clean, cutout is as new and the record has no deep marks or scratches...just a few whispy marks/hairlines under strong light, has a nice lustre and shine, the lables are both clean and damage free with little sign of being played. Really Nice condition.
It will be sent out in sturdy record mailer with stiffners and record out of sleeve in pvc sleeve to prevent any damage in the mail.
This is a rare item 0.99p start no reserve, dont miss out.
