Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1968 ) of their masterpiece double-album. Both discs are rare red-waxes, issued only for its 1st press. "The Beatles" logo is embossed in lower portion of front-cover. Though an insert is missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red-wax even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
Condition: G+/VG+/VG+ ( Cover / Disc 1/2 )
COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & outer-edges. It’s stained on upper portions of each side ( See photos ), while being lightly scraped with ring-wear and some minor scratches on the surface of each side. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.
DISC 1/2: Both discs are good in condition, keeping glossy. Each disc has slight scuffs including slight hairlines in part on each side. There are a few to several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch, which is to be “VG+”. All flaws are so slight that they play nice on each side.
OBI: VG, being creased on the right of “apple” of front. A folding crease is in the middle with light creases on its lower portions. The supply-tag is still in the top of back.
INSERT: INSERT is missing.
POSTER: G, being aged, creased and stained with brown spots on the surface of each side. Folding creases are partly worn with short split. Small brown tape-stain marks or pin-holes are in corners.
PIN-UP: G+ each, being lightly creased, tanned and stained on the surface of each side. A small brown tape-stain mark is on the middle of top & bottom rims of blank side for each one.
INNER-BAGS: VG each, being lightly creased with light ring-crease on its surface of each side.
