THE BEATLES The Beatles (Very Rare 1968 Australian first press 30-track MONO double LP, complete with the original censored fold-out double sided poster which omits the naked photo of Paul McCartney by a post. Also includes the jet black die-cut inners & four US printed colour photo prints. Comes housed in the original Aussie pressed top-opening, fully laminated & embossed gatefold sleeve [five digit number in grey starting with 'A']. The sleeve also has the original mono sticker on the back along with a vintage price sticker. This particular example would make a decent collection filler. The packaging [VG+] remains off white with some minor edge scuffing. There is a faint name indentation to an inside corner & a previous owner's name on both of the unsliced Apple label sides. The poster exhibits a little foxing & signs of age wear & handling. The vinyl grades G+/VG- with multiple paper hairline scuffs & the occasional light scratch with no jumps or sticks & very pleasing playback on a mono setting. Here's a collectable Beatles pressing we have never even seen before! PMCO7067-8)
