Catalogue Number: MAL-2835
Matrix Numbers:
Etched
Side 1: MAL -1-2835-F9
Side 2: MAL -2-2835-F9

East Coast SCRANTON 'I AM' triangle pressing.

Vinyl:
EX!

I gave her a gentle ultrasonic clean, followed by a delicate vacuum and then listened to the vinyl-all the way through on both sides..
Flat & shiny.
I found a superbly clean and clear audio with barely any background noise at all. She just carries the faintest of wispy marks to her from simple removal and replacement of the inner sleeve.
*TOP QUALITY AUDIO REPRODUCTION*

The Cover:
EX+!

HAS THE VERY RARE ORIGINAL STICKER TO THE FRONT STATING:
"Specifically Imported By E.M.I. Records" in gold....Very hard to find these!
"PRINTED IN USA" in a small circle to the inside gatefold.
-The labels credit BMI on all the songs.
-Inside jacket credits Maclen Music Inc., BMI.
-Has "No you're not" under "I Am the Walrus" in bold block letters.
-Includes 24-page booklet...WITHOUT THE BOOKLET BECOMING DETATCHED!
Remians very solid indeed.
The Spine states MONO (There is some light green pen with the writing of the stereo catalogue number-please see the detailed images for yourselves)....Also has the faint text to the bottom left corner to the back of the cover....
"Manufactured By Capitol..."
EXCELLENTLY strong and LEGIBLE spine.
Lovely THICK ORIGINAL CARD.
Pasted on cover...Just some light rubbing throughout, but nothing to worry about.
GATEFOLD


The Booklet:
EX

 ALL THERE! With just a very few tiny spots of foxing and light wear near the staples.... Each page is glorious in colour and still intact.
*AND STILL ATTACHED WITH THE ORIGINAL STAPLES*

Gorgeous Technicolour pics in the 24 page booklet


The labels:
EX+

Lovely and clear without any fading.
Simply EXCELLENT and with barely any hole wear or spindle marks.


Inner:
EX+.  

White paper inner which has certainly done her job by looking after this slab of vinyl for all these years!


ALL IN ALL THIS IS AN INCREASINGLY RARE COPY OF MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR IN THE FIRST PRESSING STATE, IMPORTED IN FROM THE USA AND IN MONO!
ATTACHED BOOKLET (NOW THAT IS RARE)
 THIS WOULD MAKE A SUPERB, TOP NOTCH ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION.
FANTASTIC AUDIO AND ALL COMPLETE TOO!
