READ
THIS! These records are NOT sold
for perfect sound quality. They’re sold for their scarcity and VISUAL grading.
They’ve been in storage for a decade, and they WILL play with surface noise
that can be addressed with D4 or a VPI cleaning. I can’t test-play at the minute. Please don’t
bid if this is a problem for you.
So with that
said…
Beatles LP White Album 1968 Apple Pressing,
Supernice Cover, Photos and Poster!
This copy
has one of the cleanest covers I’ve ever seen.
Not NM, but definitely a nice, sturdy, clean white copy!
Vinyl--- VG+/VG. VG+/VG.
Plates--- J55/J50. J52/J48. Hand-etched letter
“O” in the dead wax on both sides makes this copy pressed in Jacksonville.
Cover--- Mostly white with slight yellowing
and extremely little ringwear. Bottom
seam has light damage. See photo. NO
DIRTWEAR. NO SPLITS.
Gatefold--- Some yellowing at the top 1/8. Small rust spot in the gatefold seam at the
very bottom. NO SPLITS.
Photos--- NM/NM/NM/NM. All photos are gorgeous, thick card stock, full gloss and
smooth as silk. George has one light
finger divot. All of them look brand
newly-printed! Slight sepia-tone, as
well as the “Printed in U.S.A.” circle in the bottom left corner make these
photos 1968/1969. Color was improved in
1970, and “Apple Records, Inc.” was included on the photos.
Poster--- VG+. Moderate amount of finger divots, and
that’s it. Full gloss. NO
SPLITS. Slight sepia-tone, as well
as the “Printed in U.S.A.” circle in the bottom left corner makes this poster 1968/1969. Color was improved in 1970, and “Apple
Records, Inc.” was included on the poster.
Labels--- NM/NM/NM/NM. NO SPINDLE MARKS.
Capitol Inner Sleeve--- Generic white inner sleeve with no
die-cut hole for the labels to show is present and in EX condition. NO
SEAM SPLITS.
RIAA: N/A.
This is a
great set!
As these
records have been in storage for many years, they will play back with crackling
and tics, however; a good moisturizing and cleaning with either D4 Discwasher
or a VPI machine always clears them up.
Thanks!)
Note: All LP’s ship outside of their album covers in order not to
damage the covers during shipment.
CAUTION! There has been a startling increase in bidders canceling their bids. A word to the wise, I have started blocking
any and all bidders who retract their bids regardless of the reason.
Please don’t bid unless you’re
willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!
(Please
note: Regarding
play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized. The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and
I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle.
Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix? Thanks!)
