Description
Front Cover: Laminated, flip-back sleeve design.
Back Cover: The top right part of the flip-back is blank. It does NOT read "File under POPULAR : Pop Groups". A cover containing this is a repress. Back cover includes title, credits, and song listing. Catalog number in upper right corner. Un-laminated.
Labels: Black Columbia labels with silver text, and a blue "Columbia Records Magic Notes Trademark" at the top, and a blue "Columbia" in the center. A specific font is used with the first pressing. Please compare with the photos on this release to confirm the correct label. Track 1 on Side 2, (including all writing credits), should read across one line only. If the artist credits extend to a second line, it is the repress.
Underneath the blue "Columbia" it reads "Sold in U.K. subject to resale price conditions. See price lists." "K" and "T" tax code is stamped on side 1 label, on each side of the spindle hole. Text around the bottom edge of the label starts at 10 o'clock and says:
Disk: plate markings are a stamped number at 9:00 and a letter at 3:00, relative to the matrix stamped at 6:00 of the dead wax.
- Side 1: XAX 3420-2 1/G
- Side 2: XAX 3419-1 1/G
- Condition
Sleeve (EX+): The sleeve is in lovely clean condition, one of the best 1st issue MONO covers I have ever seen. There are a few very faint spine creases that are visible and a tiny amount of corner wear on opening edge corners. Absolutely minor and just a superb cover overall!
Record (Near Mint): This is a beautiful copy! Vinyl looks perfect and retains its ‘as new' glossy surface, playing with perfect sound! Both labels are clean and don’t show any spindle trails whatsoever. KT tax code clearly visible on side 1.
Inner (VG+): Includes original EMI advertisement inner sleeve in good condition showing light age related wear.
