DISC
Labels: EXCELLENT PLUS
Excellent looking with true centre holes which have not been 'inked' to hide wear.
Record sounds very good. The disc has certainly not been treated badly and still retains a good shine, there are light surface marks but these do not sound or effect the overall sound quality. Sounds excellent.
Cover: VERY GOOD
The front panel is bright and clean with an unscratched, undamaged laminate bearing just a few light creases.
The corners display just some wear, as can be seen in photograph.
The opening edge is clean, sharp with only extremely light wear.
The rear panel is clean, a slight crease by the track listing, no major discoloration, other marks or missing paper.
All the delicate flipbacks are in place.
The seams are strong and unsplit and the spine is unworn, clean and readable with no missing paper or laminate.
A rare opportunity to buy an excellent sounding copy of this early Beatles classic.
I accept PayPal payments, cheques in GBP and cash.
Postage and Packing: UK £2.80, Europe £3.80, Rest of the World £5.80.
