***NEAR MINT THROUGHOUT***
AN UPGRADE
No. 167704
!!!AN ALL ORIGINAL & COMPLETE UNUSUAL 4th PRESSING: Oct 1970-STEREO!!!
***SIMPLY MAGICAL Audio***
This album was The Beatles FIRST release on the now famous Apple label. It was entered into the charts on the 7th of December 1968 and went straight to number one-where it stayed for 7 weeks! Making it the FIRST double album to get the top slot...EVER!
The rather unusual fact about this album is that it was the first release by The Beatles which contained only SOLO material.
By the time 1970 ended, the total sales of this wonderful album were estimated to be 6.5 Million! However...get this...The only other album that beat this a few years later was "Saturday Night fever" !!!

**NEAR MINT**
!!EASY UPGRADE!!
GORGEOUSLY shiny vinyl. The vinyl is as shiny today as the day she was born-being ultra critical I can barely see a few incredibly faint, wispy, light marks to her.
I have just played her all the way through-after giving her a professional Vacuum clean and W-O-W..SUPERB AUDIO!
Wonderfully clear highs and deep bassy lows...Even the fading onHelter Skelter was fantastically quiet on the break down!
Even the run-ins and transitions between tracks were silent!
FLAT
A pure joy to listen to...I even noticed new arrangements I hadn't heard before when playing other White Albums over the 18 years in trading Beatles vinyl...SIMPLY EXCEPTIONAL
The labels:
**NMINT-**
You could frame these beauties!!
All four of the labels are extremely bright and clean with the DARKER apple.
Only a few very light spindle marks-which are only visible when angled towards the light and actively looking for them! Barely ANY hole wear to each label.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES FOR YOURSELVES

The Cover:
**NEAR MINT**
One of the best covers I have ever seen!
NUMBERED: 167704.
It is the 3rd 4th and 5th run: SIDE loading with a great shine to the laminate.
Without the flipbacks showing on the inside-instead, they are folded within the pockets where the records are housed.
Garrod and Lofthouse gatefold.
The spine remains strong and free from any lifting to the laminate...LOVELY.
WITHOUT the printing of Stereo to the back top right.
I could barely see just two very small (2cm and very light) crescents of spidering to the either side of the laminate.
S-U-P-E-R-B
Only very, VERY light rubbing to the corners.
(Please see the detailed pictures for yourself-it really is rather nice).
AGAIN, I AM BEING INCREDIBLY CRITICAL!!!
PLEASE SEE MY FEEDBACK FOR FAIR GRADINGS
NEAR MINT Garrod & Lofthouse gatefold here.
SUPERBLY clean inside.
Opens with the crackle-as if being opened for the first time back in 1970!!!

It is the ORIGINAL printing of this poster. Lyrics printed to the back and kiss to the front.
