THICK VINYL WITH "UNBOXED DECCA"LOGOS +"GROOVED"LABELS MONO LP+THE ORIGINAL PATENTS APPLIED FOR INNER SLEEVE!
1B/5A MATRIXES+A LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH MINIMAL WEAR(ALL LISTED BELOW)
THE PATENTS PENDING CREDIT INNER SLEEVE DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST EVER PRINTED!
BACK IN 1966 THIS WAS OF COURSE A BIG SELLER BUT ALMOST EVERY COPY THAT SURVIVES IS IN BEATEN UP,WORN CONDITION ESPECIALLY THE MONO ONES WHEN STEREO COPIES EXIST AND TENDED TO BE BOUGHT BY THOSE WITH MORE SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT!
THIS ONE IS THE BEST MONO COPY I HAVE FOUND IN YEARS!
MOST COPIES SOLD 45 YEARS AGO IN 1966 WERE PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS WITH GLEAMING SURFACES AND ONLY A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS!-THE COVER REMOVAL HAIRLINE TYPE.
A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE.
NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE!
NO LOUD CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS!
CLEAN LABELS-ONLY A LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR.
A COPY THAT HAS BEEN USED BUT OBVIOUSLY CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1966!
THE TRACKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
MOTHER'S LITTLE HELPER
STUPID GIRL
LADY JANE
UNDER MY THUMB
DONCHA BOTHER ME
GOIN' HOME
FLIGHT 505
HIGH AND DRY
