Beatles / Rubber Soul
Japan Odeon Early Press LP


Odeon OP - 8156

Appendices: "F/B Cover”, “Fold-Out Insert” & “Red Wax”
( OBI & INNER-BAG are missing )

Description: This is scarce Japanese Odeon Early Press copy ( released in late 1960’s ) of their original album. The disc is rare red-wax, issued only for Japanese early pressing. Though obi & inner-bag are missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red-wax even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G/VG+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is worn on the corners, bottom, right-edge & lightly other outer-edges. It’s creased around the rims with ring-wear on the front & back. Stain-mark is in left bottom-rim & corner of back. A few short tears are on the right-rim of front. Otherwise it has no strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has slight scuffs including slight hairlines in places on each side ( mainly on Side B ). There are many spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch, which is to be rated as "VG+". All flaws are so slight that it plays strong on each track.

OBI: OBI is missing.

INSERT: G+, being lightly browned on the surface of each side.

INNER-BAG: INNER-BAG is missing.
