Please Note; In my opinion the grading of vinyl records and sleeves is at best subjective                      So with this in mind I will always err on the side of caution with my                      Grading’s. Which are based on the ‘Record Collector‘ UK Grading’s                        There seems to be far too many  vinyl records being offered for sale that are                     Not realistcally graded.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
DISC;  -  LABELS ,                EXCELLENT    /  EXCELLENT  
Both Labels are in lovely condition, all the  lettering is in pristine condition  they both show  a few feint  spindle trails and virtually NO spindle hole wear.  They show NO writing, stickers or sticker removal marks whatsoever.  
DISC;  VISUAL,                    VERY GOOD +  /  VERY GOOD 
In normal daylight  it  shows both disc surfaces to have  retained their beautiful deep black  gloss sheen. I could detect just one light surface stylus mark to the side 2 vinyl surface  which is NON – FEELABLE and does not impact on  the SUPERB AUDIO.  Directly beneath my unforgiving  Double Halogen  desk lamp I could detect a very light surface  rub mark to side two together with just some very feint wispy bag removal hairlines.
.                           DISC;   AUDIO,                   EXCELLENT - ( All Round )
During one careful play of both sides of the disk using a lightweight dedicated mono cartridge The audio sounded superb. I could detect NO heavy crackle or background static. During the run in’s ./ out’s and between tracks there was little in the way of pops or crackles. And during all tracks I could detect just some occasional light dust pops and a little light static. There was of course NO skips, jumps or stalls. .

INNER;               EXCELLENT 
This inner is the ORIGINAL black die cut front inner sleeve and is in very nice condition  It shows NO writing, stickers or tears. It shows just some inevitable very  creasing .  
SLEEVE; 
 The outer sleeve is the original Garrod & Lofthouse  front laminated tri  - flipback sleeve  with an unlaminated back panel.

Front Panel;         EXCELLENT -       
The front still retains a very nice high gloss sheen,  and still retains its bright vibrant colours It shows a few light creases and a small amount of light rubbing to the corners. The top and bottom seams are in excellent condition .
Spine;                   EXCELLENT 
The Spine is in very nice clean condition with clear spine text  and nice factory pinched spine corners. .
Flipbacks;            EXCELLENT 
The Tri  Fold  Flipbacks are in excellent, condition they are very firm and fully intact. They show just a  few small thumbnails.  The bottom right flipback shows the Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve printing details.

Back Panel;        VERY GOOD ++    The back panel has survived in a very nice clean overall condition.   The only negative is a sticker removal mark / rub in the top back left hand corner.and it Shows some light age toning  ostensibly to the open edge. There is NO extra writing etc.

               In my opinion this is a very respectable example of this iconic, hard to find and very  sought after UK Beatles Album, that can only continue to appreciate in value.
