The Beatles - Revolver (LP, Album, RE, Rai) (Mint (M))

Released Year: 1983
Media Condition: Mint (M)
Sleeve Condition: Near Mint (NM or M-)

Comments:
Sealed new old stock, pristine copy lays flat with no sawcuts or hole punches. Sharp corners. **Cannot confirm exact pressing as it is sealed** but there I presume it to be this release o earlier (83 in serial number on old price tag). Ask for pics, ships with care in a whiplash mailer from a brick and mortar record store.

Notes:
1983-85 Capitol rainbow band label with rim text inside colorband. There were 2 80s Black Capitol rainbow band label variations. This one was pressed 1983-1985 at Capitol's Jacksonville plant as identified by a "0" in the matrix runout. Both sides stamped MASTERED BY CAPITOL. On some pressings that stamp is only on one of the sides. The label has a dull label finish and has the classic 1" diameter inner-ring notch that surrounds the spindle hole. The vinyl is a little more firm than the SRC pressings, and some pressings are translucent (hold the disc up to a bright light and you can seed through it). (The other pressing, 1986-87, were pressed at Specialty Record Corporation (The large S surrounding R and C stamped in the run-out), also identified by smooth indent/notch approx 3/4" from edge of label and glossy finish. The SRC pressings also have more etching data on the run-out. The vinyl is a little more flexible/bendy than the Capitol pressings.) Note that the catalog # had changed by this time to SW-2576 (originally ST) but the ST is still used in the matrix stamp. SW is on the jacket and labels. There is an etched name in the run-outs just before "MASTERED BY CAPITOL" that appears to say "gene", possibly referring to Capitol master engineer Gene Thompson (see photo). Also, on this pressing the Winchester matrix ID stamp —◁ is also still visible in both matrix areas but has been scratched out. -NO factory designator # on back of jacket. -Issued in posterboard stock. Disc came in clear rice paper inner sleeve. Here's the link to the similar Specialty Records Corp (SRC) 80s rainbow label variation: [r3394656
