Three words every collectors strives for. I have devised a solution. I will ship every White Album I sell where each LP will come in it's own white cardboard sleeve that is stamped with the same serial number that is on the White Album you are purchasing. Additionally, each record will be put in a paper/poly sleeve for easy identification, and also stamped with the same number as your White Album. This will keep your original Apple cover from seam splittings and preserve it for many years to come !!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is as nice a White Album with 6 label errors you'll find for sale anywhere !

The letters stand for the International Association of Machinists, the union that represented workers at the plant. The union actually got the right to etch that symbol into the records as part of a new labor contract finalized in July 1962. Here are all the 7 song errors on the labels: 1. "Bungalow Bill" instead of "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill" 2. "Obladi Oblada" instead of "Ob-la-di Ob-la-da" 3. "Rocky Racoon", missing the second "C" in Raccoon 4. "Goodnight" instead of "Good Night" 5. "Revolution No. 1" instead of "Revolution 1" 6. "Revolution No. 9" instead of "Revolution 9" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's very invaluable information on how The Beatles White Albums were numbered, and the meaning behind all the sequences... The first 25 White Albums were numbered with an 'A' prefix and then a series of zeros preceding the number (e.g. A0000009). There are always seven digits following the 'A' so if it was a single digit number it would be preceded by six zeroes or if it was a two digit number it would be preceded by five zeroes. It is not known what the 'A' was indicative of (it may mean printed in America or Apple but neither is confirmed). Numbers 26-99 were three digit numbers preceded with a zero and no prefix. Numbers 100 through approximately 209,999 were preceded with the correct number of zeroes to make them a seven digit number (with no letter prefix) Beginning around 210,000 to up near 590,000, they were preceded by a zero and had an 'A' prefix. Copies 590,000 up to about 1,350,000 remain at seven digits using a leading zero if necessary and are prefixed with a large dot or an 'A' The next batch from 1,350,000 up to some point past 2,000,000 are prefixed with an 'A' but it's a thinner 'A' than used earlier. From 2,000,000 to around 2,250,000 some are prefixed with a large dot and some with the 'A' From 2,250,000 up to 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with the abbreviation for number (i.e. No.)On some of these the 'o' in No. is raised with the period below it instead of beside it. For the final numbers over 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with a wide 'A' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please view all the photos and read through the description several times.
