Beatles LET IT BE BOXED SET 1st UK Pressing PXS 1 COMPLETE Rarest to ever find in this top condition and complete with original inner tray outer tray and book. The audio is also superb through out. Earliest possible features -2U -2U Matrix endings! Important point to note! I have been collecting Beatles records for over 45 years now and I have a few original Let It Be Boxed Sets. From my experience none ever came with a poster. I noticed that posters have been popping up on the internet that are supposed to be with the boxed set but I can tell you to beware, from my experience THEY DID NOT COME WITH A POSTER! Designed by John Kosh and original. This features the lovely fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse box cover very minor rubbing wear but barely any creases at the front and rear minor storage wear at the edges and corners. Graded very Good. The Book is the original and all pages fully intact as it should be. no writing or creases on the pages. Only light stains on all pages. The Record CoverAgainthis earliest original Garrod & Lofthouse printed fully laminated cover is in superb condition no splits or tears just minor crease to mention at the front opening edge but nice and straight. Graded at least excellent to excellent plus in my opinion. (Note,only 1st pressings featured the RED APPLE LOGO at the rear of the cover). Only a small loss of laminate on Harrison's hair. The record sleeve:Original EMI plain white patented sleeve. Nosplits or tears very clean. Near MINT The Matrix:Side 1“YEX 773-2U”(Earliest possible)Side 2 “YEX 773-2U” (Earliest possible) The Mother Stampers Side 1. “1” Side 2. “2” The Vinyl:On initial inspection the playing surface is clean and looks like it has only had minimal play only in my opinion. The vinyl lays perfectly flat on the turntable. Only if looked at under a strong lamp I notice very small scratches on one side only, at least nothing too bad that would cause contant clicks or pops through out the play of the vinyl. NEAR MINT condition!!! The Audio Quality:This plays clean clear and vibrant through out no distortion, in fact side one plays near mint through out stunningly clean clear and vibrant. Side two plays clear and very vibrant with isolated light clicks heard in two places worth to mention. Amazingly no distionion at all through out. Side one is graded at near mint throughout and side two at least excellent to excellent plaus for the most part. I would grade this audio at better than excellent to excellent plus for the most part. Please allow for isolated ticks here and there, may be reduced with a clean before each play because this album has been stored for over 50 years or more. On the whole this is very clear and vibrant, enjoyable playable copy only heard like this on the earliest pressings very sought after and highly collectable. The Labels:Near Mint condition
