Beatles / Hey Jude
Japan Orig. LP


Apple AP - 8940

Appendices: "Original Medal OBI”, “Inner-Bag", "Insert" & “Red Wax”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy of their original album, comin' with complete appendices. The disc is beautiful red wax, issued only for its 1st press. It's hard to find this item in complete shape even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, right-edge, spine & lightly other outer-edges. It’s lightly scraped on the surface of front & back. Light ring-wear is on the back. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has a few slight scuffs on each side. There’re several spindle-marks with brown spots on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as “EX+". Clean disc for Japanese red wax & its release year, I guarantee you.

OBI: G+, being stained with light brown spots on the surface of back. A short tear is in left top-rim of “medal” portion. A supply-tag in the top of back is missing ( stripped off ).

INSERT: G+, being lightly browned with brown spots in places on the surface of each side.

INNER-BAG: G+, being creased with ring-crease on each side.
