ATTENTION THE BEATLES AND 1960s LP COLLECTORS!     

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL UK 1967 1ST MONO ISSUE OF AN ESSENTIAL BEATLES ALBUM:"SGT.PEPPER" ON THE EMI PRESSED PARLOPHONE YELLOW/BLACK LABELS WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE AND VERY SHORT LIVED MISPRINT OF NO "A DAY IN THE LIFE" SONG TITLE ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL. THIS WAS CORRECTED WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF ISSUE WITH ONLY A FEW THOUSAND COPIES PRINTED LIKE THIS! THERE IS OF COURSE THE EARLIEST "SOLD IN UK" TEXT BELOW THE PARLOPHONE LOGOS NOT ON THE LATER BLACK/SILVER LABEL REPRESSES THAT FOLLOWED IN 1969.

PMC 7027-THICK VINYL AND THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE -1/-1 MATRIXES.

IN 1967 MOST COPIES SOLD WERE PLAYED ON EQUIPMENT OFTEN THAT HAD HEAVY PICKUPS AND RADIOGRAMS THAT ENCOURAGED THE USE OF AUTO-CHANGERS THAT WOULD SCUFF AND SCRATCH THE DELICATE GROOVES.

THIS EXAMPLE HAS BEEN PLAYED AND ENJOYED WITH A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS.THERE IS A CLICK SOUNDING DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE TRACK "A DAY IN THE LIFE" BUT NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE,SOME SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE AS WELL SOME ISOLATED "POPS" BUT NO STICKS OR JUMPS!

INCLUDES THE USUALLY MISSING CUT OUT INSERT WHICH IS 100% COMPLETE HAVING REMAINED INSIDE THE COVER FOR MOST OF THE LAST 51 YEARS!

THE RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE RED/WHITE "FLAME DESIGN" CURVED EDGES INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" TEXT AND THE FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER.  I AM ALSO INCLUDING AN EMI LPs ADVERT INNER SLEEVE FROM 1967 THAT INCLUDES "SGT.PEPPER" AND HAS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" TEXT.PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS FOR THE FULL TRACK LISTING! THE DISC IS SERIOUSLY AND STRICTLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD++++++ CONDITION DUE TO THE MARK ON THE TRACK "A DAY IN THE LIFE" BUT MOST OF THE DISC SOUNDS NEARER TO EXCELLENT!.THERE IS A LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR AND A FAINT OWNER'S NAME ON THE SIDE 1 LABEL.

THE RED/WHITE INNER HAS A SMALL SPLIT AT THE TOP OF ONE SIDE,A COUPLE OF ULTRA TINY TEARS AT THE TOP,SOME CREASES AND A LITTLE STAINING. THE EMI LPs INNER IS SUPER CLEAN WITH JUST A FEW CREASES.THE CUT OUT HAS A COUPLE OF SMALL CREASES.

 THE COVER HAS SOME SMALL/MINOR CREASES(MOSTLY AT THE EDGES)BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER,THE INNER,INSERT AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE MAGNIFICENT AND ESSENTIAL LPs FROM ME ON EBAY THIS WEEK AND TO FOLLOW.  PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME. 

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
