Impossibly Rare in this Condition!!!! This Vinyl is Almost Museum-Quality!!! You Will NOT Find A More Pristine UK 1st Press!!!

It's been a  while...  But we are back to commence our regular selection of true Nr Mint Psych/Prog/Folk & Classic Rock vinyl LP's & 7"s. By way of apologies to our regular buyers for being away so long, we have some very special auctions commencing this week. Check them all out Here

You are bidding on what is quite simply the best copy of this seminal record you are ever likely to see. I will be very reluctant to part with this very special record!!! What makes this record so special is it's earliest Non - Box Set 1st Pressing! Complete with early 2 7 AGT & 7 AOR stampers. The 3U/3U was along with the 2U/3U, the first off the UK Apple/EMI presses back n May 1970. You will not find a better copy of 'Let It Be' by The Beatles! It comes with its correct pristine Nr Mint  thickly laminated '1st Green Apple' Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve and its correct Nr Mint ''Made in Great Britain & Patents Pending' 1st Press EMI Inner Sleeve!

Don't miss this one as you will not find another, this early and in this condition!

Cat No:

PCS 7096

Matrix:

Side 1 - YEX 773 -3U

Side 2 - YEX 774 -3U

This LP is in immaculate condition throughout!!! The Classic  1st press Apple centre labels are in impossible Nr Mint condition with NO Tears, NO Peeling, NO Scribbles and NO unwanted writing of any kind!!!!!!  The Side 1 centre label has NO evidence spindle alignment lines whatsoever - indicating that side 2 was probably never played. The only indication that this record has EVER seen a turntable before is a solitary almost invisible spindle alignment line on side 2. Both labels are Nr Mint. The gramophone rims containing the all important matrix's are also mint!!!

What can I say about the vinyl itself? It has NO Scratches, No scuffing, NO marks, NO Groove Wear, NO warping or blemishes of any kind at a!!! Nothing!!! This record is completely blemish-free. It has still has all of its beautiful 'factory pressed' glass-like sheen!!! It has NO Scratches, No scuffing, NO marks, NO Groove Wear, NO warping or blemishes of any kind at all - not even a paperline!!! Nothing!!! This disc is pristine!!! This vinyl will knock you dead if you are lucky enough to win this auction. As you are probably all aware this is very rare for a UK pressed Beatles album.

The classic UK 1st Press laminated Garrod & Lofthouse flipback sleeve is also in absolutely stunning Near Mint condition!!! The corners are super sharp, and there is no edge or spine wear whatsoever!!! In fact I'd go so far as to say the spine is MINT, as are the edges. The thick laminate is also stunning, it actually glistens!!! I cannot find fault with this sleeve at all! It goes without saying that there are not tears, writing splits etc. As you will have guessed from above, we are in a different league altogether with this record. This gets a very strong Near Mint grading!

Of course, this comes with its original 1st issue 1970 UK EMI 'Made in Great Britain & Patents Pending' text inner sleeve. Which is as crisp white and uncreased as the day it was made! Of course it has no seam splits and no seam wear/ tears etc. In Nr Mint condition

If you have been living on Mars for the past 40 or so years and have never heard this record- you will not find another copy that plays more pristinely than this- it will blow you away!!! If you are a collector/investor, the price of this record in this condition will just rise and rise. An absolutely essential (and very rare) UK 1st press record to own in this complete and beautiful condition!!! Don't miss this one!!! You really do not want to miss adding this pristine rarity to your collection - this record is worth pushing the boat out for!!!!

Like the vast majority of my collection, this record has been archived in a smoke & damp free environment for the best part of 20-30 years!

All my records have No reserve, a Low Start and No Surcharges!

Refunds & Feedback ... Please read this carefully ... We try to give you the best quality examples of rare records available. However, there will always be somebody out there whose expectations far exceed UK record collector grading standards.  If you are in anyway unsatisfied with your record or our grading of it please refer to the UK Record Collector Grading Chart very carefully BEFORE emailing us. We strictly adhere to it and will only offer refunds (minus the postage AND our eBay costs) if we are satisfied that we have fallen below UK record collector grading standards. This will very rarely, if ever, happen. We will not be impressed with buyers disputing our gradings without even bothering to check the UK record collector grading standards chart first - you have been warned ...

Buyers who continually Haggle, Whine and Moan to try to decrease the price they won their auctions for will be blocked from bidding on future auctions and can toodle off down to HMV or Virgin where they can harass the counter staff there.

We will always leave feedback upon receipt of feedback. In an ideal world we would like to leave feedback as soon as the record has been shipped but due to feedback blackmail in the past (i,e, ",,,I want a partial refund or I will leave negative feedback") we have opted to take this measure. Contact must be made within 3 days of winning the auction. If payment has not been received after 10 days a non paying bidder alert will be placed. If payment is then not received within 7 days Negative feedback WILL be left and the buyer WILL be given a strike by eBay. Thems the terms. Thanks for reading.
