Includes 4 photos -- one of each Beatle (John, Paul, George, and Ringo). No poster included. Condition of the items: 1) Sticker: Original orange hype sticker affixed to the cover. Color is still very vibrant. Tiniest of tear on the upper right, maybe 0.25". Very, verymild soiling, consistent with what is seen on a typical White Album. 2) Cover: Surprisingly very white and retains much of its original gloss! Little ringwear, little soiling. Embossed "The Beatles" name looks great. Somesmall indentations along the lower front cover. A few 'browning' spots along the edges. Lower-left of rear cover has small spot of paper loss (about thesize of a nickel). Spine is intact and looks great! Lower seams have small splits in middle (~1") and at edge (~1.5"). Upper front seam is fully split.Upper rear seam with small split in middle (~1.5")3) LPs (sides 1/2/3/4): VG- / VG-- / VG- / VG-. Clearly the vinyl is not the item of interest here.
