Beatles Complete Catalogue on the 1976 Orange Capitol Label Plus One, ALL EX/NM VINYL!
Please note: These records are not sold for sound quality. I’m currently without a turntable, and I don’t have the ability to test-play vinyl. If that’s an issue for you, please skip this auction, as I have no way of guaranteeing their sound quality.
Many thanks!
This auction is for 18 LP’s of The Beatles’ Capitol catalogue. The extra LP is a copy of the “Let It Be” album on the purple Capitol label, which of course, did not have a release on the orange Capitol label.
Shipping in the U.S. is $12.00.

14. The Beatles
(Not sure how you grade this copy. Record 1 has what appears to be light streaks throughout both sides, but they vanish beneath the grooves when you tilt them toward the light. I think these are manufacturer’s defects.)
Vinyl--- VG+/VG+. VG/EX. I’ll go conservative and say that album one is VG+, but will probably play EX or better. Side 3 has something embedded into the grooves from the factory on “Mother Nature’s Son” that you can feel, and will sound on playback. Side 4 looks almost NM, except for one light line.
Plates--- J45/ G77. G86/ G11. Machine-stamped asterisk in the dead wax makes this copy pressed in Los Angeles.
Cover--- VG. Top pockets have splits about 3 inches long each. Light dirtwear, not too bad for a White Album.
Labels--- EX/EX. EX/EX. Very light and short spindle marks.
Inner Sleeves--- Rice paper sleeves for this one.
RIAA--- N/A.
No poster or photos.
15. Yellow Submarine
Vinyl--- NM/NM. Heart-stopping shine, both sides.
Plates--- H31/ G38. Hand-etched Delta symbol (or rifle) in the dead wax on both sides makes this copy pressed in Winchester.
Cover--- Strong VG. Just some light to moderate dirtwear. All seams and spine are muscular strong, NO SPLITS.
Labels--- EX/NM. Side 1 label has a very small white mark, where the orange didn’t take to the label.
Inner Sleeve--- Generic white.
RIAA--- N/A.
16. Abbey Road
Vinyl--- EX/EX. Just a shade off NM, both sides have scant few hairlines.
Plates--- G58/G58. Hand-etched Delta symbol (or rifle) in the dead wax on both sides makes this copy pressed in Winchester.
Cover--- VG+. Structurally solid. A few wrinkles in the cover, very light. NO SPLITS.
Labels--- EX/EX. Spindle marks on both labels, very light. Otherwise NM. Consigned labels with the wider concentric ring.
Inner Sleeve--- Generic white.
RIAA--- N/A.
17. Let It Be
(As mentioned, this is on the purple Capitol label, since there was no orange Capitol issue for this title.)
Vinyl--- NM/NM. Vinyl looks brand new gorgeous.
Plates--- F2/ H9. Hand-etched Delta symbol (or rifle) in the dead wax on both sides makes this copy pressed in Winchester.
Cover--- EX. Just very minimal wear and record outdent. NO SPLITS.
Labels--- NM/NM. NO SPINDLE MARKS.
Inner Sleeve--- EX. Originally-issued for the purple Capitol label inner sleeve is present and in really good condition. Anyone who has one of these sleeves knows that the side seams were split when you bought it, and that the black, glossy sleeves will wear off white over time. Not this one.
A generic white sleeve will be provided, so as not to ruin your original inner sleeve en route, so take care of it. You’re not going to find a replacement very easily!
RIAA--- N/A.

*All of these albums will be shipped with plastic sleeves, and the albums will be shipped behind their covers, so as not to split the seams. They will be packaged for safe transport to you.
CAUTION! There has been a startling increase in bidders canceling their bids. A word to the wise, I have started blocking any and all bidders who retract their bids regardless of the reason.
Please don’t bid unless you’re willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!
(Please note: Regarding play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized. The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle. Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix? Thanks!)
