Beatles / Second Album ( US version )
Japan Orig. LP


Apple AP - 80012

Appendices: "Medal OBI", “G/F Cover”, “Inner-Bag” & "Insert"

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their 2nd album ( in US ), coming with complete appendices. The gate-fold cover shows inside “Japanese description” & “Photos of members”. It’s different from US copy. The disc is beautiful red wax, issued in limited number for its 1st press. The price on the back-cover & obi is JPY2000. It's hard to find this item in complete shape even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for lightly worn corners & outer-edges. It’s lightly scraped on the surface of each side, while being with minor brown spots around rims & edges of outside. Otherwise it has none of any tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.
