THE BEATLES - 'YELLOW SUBMARINE'


Here is a special 1969 UK 1st MONO pressing on the dark green Apple Records label: PMC 7070

This copy originated from the collection of a BBC radio producer and bears a genuine 'Factory Sample - Not For Sale' sticker on the side 2 label.

Both labels have the 'Sold in UK..' text with a 'KT' purchase tax code in the centre of the side 1 label, which is to see on this album.


Matrices: XEX 715-1 & XEX 716-1

Stamper codes: 3/GG & 1/H

Vinyl weight: 149g


Housed in a front laminated 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed/credited tri-flipback mono cover, complete with original matt black, die-cut inner-sleeve.

This copy was sent directly from EMI's head office to its recipient and comes with a rare EMI compliments slip signed by Terry O'Neill.

 

CONDITION

Labels: MINT -

A beautiful set showing no more than one or two extremely faint spindle trails around each unworn centre hole. There is a tiny (1cm approx.) area of bubbling to the paper at the edge of the side 2 label in the 2 'clock position but this was present from manufacture and is not a sign of wear.

Visual: MINT -

True factory-fresh playing surfaces which apart from a few unavoidable faint inner-sleeve storage marks in extreme light are unmarked and 'as new'. You will not find a cleaner looking disc.

Audio: MINT

Played no more than once or twice on broadcast quality equipment, all tracks on both sides play flawlessly with no audible issues whatsoever.

Cover: EXCELLENT

Clean, unyellowed and fully intact with an unscratched, high-gloss front panel laminate where the only significant sign of wear is a light wrinkle towards the lower right corner. All corners are free from any bumps or bruising and both opening edges are clean & unworn. The rear panel has a hint of natural toning to the rather low-quality paper used but is otherwise clean & free from any writing or missing paper.  Both seams are smooth & intact and the spine is clean & fully worded.

Inner-sleeve: VERY GOOD

Clean & flat but with small splits to the lower and one side seam.
