Appendices: "G/F Cover” & “Red-Wax Discs”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1960's ) of their masterpiece double-album. Both discs are rare red waxes, issued only for its 1st pressing ( no odeon copy exists for Japanese copy ). "The Beatles" logo is embossed in lower portion of front-cover. Though obi, insert, poster & all pin-ups are missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red wax even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
