The Beatles (White Album) - 1978 US Pressed White Vinyl Reissue - Still Sealed Issue

Scarce 1978 US Capitol Records white vinyl 2LP reissue in rare still factory sealed condition.

We presume that this issue has the purple company 'dome' label and comes complete with poster and portrait pictures - that all inserts has ''Printed in The USA' text. The cover is the original US unnumbered cover which has intact sticker on the outer shrink wrapping.

Condition: Still Factory Sealed (Cover VG++):
This copy remais factory sealed - shrinkwrapping has been partly torn on upper right back stretching to the upper left front area. Back has a mid-upper 'breathing hole' and a small mid-left tear in the shrink wrapping which along with the upper right larger area leaves the cover upon for light age discolouration. This induces - along with a small spine wrinkle and a touch of superficial cover creasing - a close to near perfect cover grading. Still a wonderfull copy - impossible to find as a still sealed copy.
