Records are in VG+ Condition. There are some light surfaces scratches but they play very well with occasional hiss and pops. Vinyl is still beautifully shiny and glossy. You can really appreciate the full mono sound of this mono mix which is UNIQUE to the UK mono pressings of the White Album.
Labels are in EX+ Condition. There are no marks or spindle wear - only the very lightest of spindle traces.
The fully laminated top-opening gatefold Record Cover is in VG+ Condition with some scruffs to the edges of the sleeve through usage and a few light creases. Light ringwear on the rear of the sleeve. Overall it's in great condition for its age and there is no hand-writing.
The original 'Lipstick Kiss' POSTER and LYRIC SHEET is in EXCELLENT condition. There are no stains or discolouration - just some light wear at the edges. There are no tears, no writing, no pin-holes, no glue or sellotape marks.
Comes with all Four Photos which are in EXCELLENT Condition. All Four Prints, 20 x 29 cms, on the original Thick Card. No tears, no writing, no pin-holes, no glue or sellotape marks.
Also comes with 2 x ULTRA RARE PHOTO SPACERS in EXCELLENT condition, very light creasing only.
The Original BLACK inner sleeves are in VG condition. These sleeves are flimsy and very rare as many have not survived through the years. Each of the 2 original black inner sleeves have feathering at the openings, splits to the seams and 2 tears at each of the centre holes (approx 1 - 2 inch long). However these are the ORIGINAL black inner sleeves which are highly collectable.
