The Beatles - Yesterday... And Today (Vinyl, LP, Album, Compilation, Reissue, Stereo) Very Good Plus (VG+) / Near Mint (NM or M-)

Notes

1983-'85 Black Capitol rainbow band label with rim text within color band (last issue under orig. cat. number), pressed at Capitol's Jacksonville plant, identified by a "O" in the matrix runout. The label has a dull label finish and has the classic 1" diameter inner-ring notch that surrounds the spindle hole.

Variant details:
-Tracks A2 and A4 in true stereo - Track B1 is in fake stereo! (most stereo pressings all 3 tracks are fake stereo)
-Mastered by Capitol stamped in runout on both sides, one side, or no sides - all have "O" in run-out
-Some pressings are translucent (hold the disc up to a bright light and you can see through it).
-Does not have a factory designator # on the back
-RIAA Gold Record Seal on front cover (all after 1975)
-Jacket is made of poster board, disc comes in clear inner sleeve

The other 80s rainbow label pressing, 1986-87, was 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.)
