ADDITIONAL INFORMATION;
Ultra rare sleeve variation with ‘Stereo’ text printed in silver ink on the front of the sleeve top right. The reason for this anomaly is unknown but is thought to be either a mistake or specially designed for export. This record is excellent overall but graded conservatively and is in a respectable condition. Light ‘feathering’ on the opening edge with some creasing on the front also near the opening edge. The rear panel is quite clean and has some creasing along the flip-backs but these do not originate from heavy bending. There is a small kink to the top right hand corner on the rear panel. There are no splits to the edges of the sleeve. This is a great example of a rare variation of Rubber Soul and a must for any vinyl collection.
Please email me if you require any additional information.
I PREFER PAYMENT BY PAYPAL.
