CONDITION

Labels: EXCELLENT

A clean & bright pair bearing a small collection of light spindle trails around each centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Extremely clean, deep-gloss playing surfaces which are unmarked in strong daylight. Closer examination directly beneath halogen light reveal little more than a few light paper scuffs and wispy paper-type hairlines from the inner-sleeve removal and a sparkling rainbow shine.

Audio: EXCELLENT

A great sounding copy of this album where the sound quality throughout is clean & warm throughout. Our play-check detected just a touch of wear on 'Ticket to Ride' but and the masterful mono 'Yesterday' plays without interference, as does everything else.

Cover: EXCELLENT

A tough cover to find in this condition, but this example has been carefully and correctly stored in a clean, non-smoking environment these past 55 years. The front panel is clean & white with just a hint of storagewear but no 'thumbnails or creasing. there is minor bruising to the corners but both opening edges are undamaged. The rear panel is clean & bright with the only blemish being a small name written in the upper right corner. All flipbacks, seams and the spine are in clean, smooth & unworn shape.

Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT

Clean & crisp with no writing, tears or seam splits.
