Description
This is a very nice original UK stereo first pressing of The Beatles "Rubber Soul" LP from 1965 on the Black & Yellow Parlophone label. The laminated Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve is EXCELLENT condition, fully intact with just a few very small laminate creases to the front and a little feathering to the opening edge, the rear is clean with flipbacks intact.The spine is fully intact with title readable. The labels show some wear and have a few small marks but are respectable, they carry the correct "GRAMOPHONE CO.." & "Sold in the UK.. " credits.The vinyl is in EXCELLENT PLUS condition, just a few light hairlines visible under very bright light. it plays superbly too, just some very light crackle between tracks in places but nothing that interferes with or spoils the music, no distortion, loud pops, clicks, jumps or sticks. Comes with its original polylined EMITEX inner. A very respectable copy of this rare first Stereo pressing

I have been a collector for any years and a now selling most of my vinyl to fund a change of career. All records are thoroughly cleaned on my ClearAudio Smart Matrix machine and then carefully played on a Rega Planar 3 deck with Goldring cartridge. I use strict RC gradings with plus and minus to indicate variation and all records are sent out in professional mailers. I offer a full refund minus return postage should you not be satisfied with how I've graded a record.
