Original 1969 US pressing of this box set, which is increasingly difficult to find in any condition. This set is complete except for the postcard.

2. 1-1/2" x 6" photo strip (included)
3. 3-1/2" x 5-1/2" postcard (not included)
4. 24" x 36" poster of wedding photos (included)
5. 12" x 36" poster of John and Yoko lithographs (included)
6. 12" square mylar bag with "Bagism" printed on it (included)
7. 11-1/2" square photo of a piece of wedding cake inserted in the mylar bag (included)
8. 17 page black cover booklet of wedding photos and clippings ("The Press") (included)
9. Copy of the wedding certificate, glued to the inside box lid (included)

 


GRADING:


Vinyl is VG/VG+ with marks causing light surface noise.  The sound of the record is still strong, vibrant and dynamic despite surface noise.


The Box has some slight wear and some of the corners are torn.  I have not taped the torn corners because I wanted to keep it as original.  Despite this, the box is very nice (see photos)


The Cover of the LP that is inside of the box is NM- (see photos). 


The photo strip is NM (see photos).


The 24" x 36" poster of wedding photos has wear including some discoloration and tears at the folds and is about VG (see photos).


The 12" x 36" poster of John and Yoko lithographs is in nice shape with a few wrinkles and is about EX- (see photos).


The 12" square mylar bag with "Bagism" printed on it is NM- (see photos).


The 11-1/2" square photo of a piece of wedding cake inserted in the mylar bag is NM (see photos).


The 17 page black cover booklet of wedding photos and clippings ("The Press") is very nice, at least EX (see photos).


The copy of the wedding certificate, glued to the inside box lid looks clean and is at least EX+ (see photos).
