The Beatles White Album. 1st U. K. Mono. No EMI. V. Low Number. 1/1/1/1. EX-/EX

For sale is a super condition rare genuine 1st U. Mono issue of The Beatles White Album. Very low number top loader sleeve and no An EMI recording text on the labels. Complete and in all round excellent condition. Original top loader sleeve in excellent condition. Very low number - 0008937. Has usual discolouration as the white has faded, but otherwise clean with no tears or creases.

Has only very slight laminate damage to the notoriously fragile spine. Most copies have bad damage to spine, but this is great with fully legible printing. Original four photos in excellent unmarked condition. Poster in near mint condition. Original black paper inner sleeves are in VG+ condition.

No An EMI recording on any of the labels. This proves it is the true first issue, as very soon after production started Apple spotted their mistake and added the missing text. Labels clean with only minor spindle wear. Visually is VG+, with only minor scuffs and hairlines. Sonically is excellent, with only occasional light crackles in quiet passages and between tracks. No ticks, clicks, skips or jumps. Visually same as side 1. Sonically is excellent as with side 1. Visually same as sides 1 & 2.

Sonically would be EX+ apart from a few light clicks at beginning of Mother Natures Son. Rest of side plays perfectly with hardly any crackles at all. Visually I would grade as VG, as there are a couple of long but very superficial scratches. Sonically it is the best of the whole set - the slight scratches make NO effect on the sound at all.

I was struggling to hear any crackles even between tracks. Therefore a complete and super condition genuine 1st Mono issue of a piece of Rock history.

The very low number sleeve makes it desirable for any collectors, but the overall condition makes it even better. The item "The Beatles White Album. EX-/EX" is in sale since Monday, July 19, 2021.
