ITEM FOR SALE
Pressed in 65 on Parlophone PMC 1267 this the 1st Mono pressing of this superb album. Sleeve and record are in pristine condition, and rarely have I seen any Beatles record as crisp and clean as this. There is no wear at all along sleeve spine, or upper and lower edges, corners have absolute minimal rubbing as can be seen, the laminate at front is as new and with minimal wear. Rear sleeve is practically near mint with one small repairable tear bottom left opening edge. The record itself is certainly the jewel here, both lables are pristine with only 2-3 spindle marks either side, if not for these marks record would be in mint condition. The playing surface is completely as new without any suface marks, both sides have a superb sheen to them, I cannot stress how clean and almost 'as new' this record is. Many will have this record, few will own Rubber Soul in this condition, this is not just a record this is an investment. Matrix numbers XEX 579-4 & XEX 580-4. Overall grading sleeve (nm/ex+) record (nm/nm).
SLEEVE/RECORD GRADING
I take great pride in accurately grading records, my feedback is testament to this accuracy, furthermore to give potential buyers a more detailed description of records, I grade both sides of sleeve and both sides of record. This gives a more accurate assessment of the overall condition of item. Sleeve is always graded first, any inserts are graded seperately. 45rpm singles are graded as a & b sides, sleeves are not graded (unless otherwise stated) but are deemed to be in a reasonable condition as seen from photograph. All photos are of the actual item you are purchasing.
POSTAGE & PACKAGING
LP's sent in purpose made cardboard mailers with two sheets of corrugated cardboard to protect item. To protect sleeve all LP's are removed form sleeve and packaged alongside item, this prevents LP damaging sleeve in transit.
