Beatles, The - The Beatles 1962-1966 - Apple - LP LP x 2 Special Cover - Rock Pop Beat 60s

mid 90s or so re-pressing

2 LP in FULLY glossy gatefold cover with semi-glossy square inner lyric sleeves

Matrix #:s 6-1- / 5 / 60-1-1 / 6-1-1  still using Matrix 5 disc (which harks back to late 70s or so !) whereas all the others are re-cuts

Cover: EX+  Gatefold - Fully Laminated**   with producer credit on inner gatefold (see other listings for variation)

with barcode on back cover

** Please note this is a glossy sleeve outside (much more glossy than the 80s issues) and glossy inside gatefold but is a lighter 'lamination' than the earlier 70s issues. Not actually a true lamination more a spray on coating of little depth compared to the 70s issues which really do stand up to use over the years.

Other pressings of these discs within this web site are 40 years old and still look amazingly good !

Labels are clean crisp and clear and different to previous labels being the old style Apple with black background rather than the red (or blue for the other set) used up until these pressings. Layout and typeface completely different

Discs: M   new/unplayed bought from EMI in mid-late 90s and unsold unused unopened   may be an occasional sleeve scuff. The discs arrived in the incorrect inner and had to be swapped

Spine: M-   new item-once these later pressings are used and the gatefold opened and closed over again the spine wears very quickly unlike the 70s pressing with their proper lamination as opposed to the spray on finish the 80s and 90s pressings used
