The Beatles White Album UK Mono Record LP
--Remember, please click on every photo to enlarge.
If you're reading this, you probably already know what this is. I've been collecting records for 20 years, but never got into the Beatles stuff. A friend of mine showed me these and asked if I could ebay them for him, so here you go.
He was living in the UK in the 70s and 80s, in separate towns from where his girlfriend was living. She would regularly mail him rare records, thinking they would be worth something someday. He had little interest, and into storage they went. He and the girl seperated, and he married. His current wife isn't thrilled his ex's name is written on the back of each record, so she would rather they not be in the house anymore. So.......here they are. Starting at $1. No reserve. You tell me what these are worth today.......as they say with antiques and things, they ain't makin any more of em!
Here's the best info I was able to find on this album, from the ebay collectors guide, click HERE
UK White Album mono - more a collectible in the United States since no mono copies were pressed by Apple in the US. My UK friends tell me that the mono copies are fairly plentiful in Great Britain. There are different mixes of the songs. Most notable is Helter Skelter. With this album you are looking for the top loading cover with the black inners, the original pictures, the original poster and of course numbered (the lower the better). Nice copies go for a pretty good chunk of change (~$500).
---mine has one of the 2 original black inners, the other has been replaced. This copy is also missing the pictures, which are easily replaceable.
So there you have it. I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking. This is another stunning record, although a little yellowed on the front cover.
Shipping is $15 US $25 UK. And don't worry, as a 20 year collector, I pack them the way I would want to receive them. No cheap cut-up cardboard boxes, professional double-boxed record mailers.

Sorry if I caused any confusion, this copy is missing the pictures and poster (which are easily replaceable from a much cheaper stock copy).
While I have not play graded this album, please check my other listing for the Revolver LP, which I did play grade and sounds AMAZING! Definitely one of the finest vinyl albums I've ever played. This copy of the white album is in visibly better shape than the Revolver LP, with very few light scuffs, and no deep damage that would affect playback.
