Lastly, if you have questions... BEATLES YESTERDAY AND TODAY1978 CAPITOL PURPLE LABEL RE LPJACKSONVILLE PRESS Media: LP Condition: VG Cover Condition: VG- Label: Capitol Records Reference Number : ST 2553 Country: US Date: 1978 (1966) 1978 Capitol reissue on PURPLE labels pressed at Capitol Records Pressing Plant, Jacksonville ('O' etching on side 1 and'0' stamp on side 2 in the dead wax run-outs). Pressed on semi-translucent (when held to light) QUIEX AUDIOPHILE VINYL! Vinyl has numerous light surface sleeve scuffs/scratches holding grade down, nothing I can feel though. Labels have wear and many spindle marks.Cover has cornerwear, dinged/creased bottom corners, edgewear, heavy wear along spine edge with a split/ripping middle of spine edge, spidering/creasing around the edges (mostly spine edge), ringwear/hazing and a couple small rips at the bottom edge of the rear cover slick. Songs: Drive My Car, I'm Only Sleeping, Nowhere Man, Dr. Robert, Yesterday, Act Naturally, And Your Bird Can Sing, If I Needed Someone, We Can Work It Out, What Goes On? Day Tripper If you're not familiar with QUIEX, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980's, record companies started pressing "Quiex II" LPs primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded just as good--or better--than CDs.
This translucent (when held to light) AUDIOPHILE beauty is one of those pressings! Yet ANOTHER BIG POSTAL INCREASE: JANUARY 21, 2024! NOTE: A double album is the SAME AS TWO LPs, a triple the same as THREE and a 5LP box set the same as FIVE records, etc. Or less is 1st Class Int'l; over 4 lbs.It is fairly quick and cheap. Tracking is now available to most countries. That is a LOT more expensive, but this is YOUR option.
Ask for a quote if needed. If you think there is a risk such as damage or loss bad postman, porch theft, etc. If you don't we will not be liable for such loss. GRADING Here is the standard PlanetarySounds grades records by (with help from Goldmine).
Remember, even with such a guide, grading is still subjective. Most albums, unless noted, are visually graded under bright lights. We strive to provide as much information as possible about each album.
Still Sealed (SS) As good as it gets. Unopened and most likely perfect all around. Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. The record shows no obvious signs of wear. Covers show no more than the most minor defects. The same holds true for inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.Near Mint Minus or Very Good Plus Plus (NM- or VG++) Just a hair more wear than NM, but still very close to Near Mint overall. Vinyl may have nominal sleeve or paper scuffs, cover may have hint of wear. VG++ will be just a fraction below NM- due to one additional tiny defect. Very Good Plus (VG+) Album and cover show some light signs that it was played and otherwise handled with care of it.
Record surfaces may have slight surface scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect play. If not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.Very Good (VG) Increased scuffs or light scratches, surface noise evident upon playing. Covers and labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers, or minor seam splits.
Covers heavily damaged, major splits, tears, writing, etc. If there is an issue, please contact me BEFORE leaving bad feedback and... We can work it out. While grading is subjective, nearly all gradings are acurate and done visually.
