Sounds awesome!! No, I got the albums when they were 1st released in the 60s. My White Album has the poster & the 4 -- 8" x 10" glossies of each of the 4 of them. Also, my Sgt Pepper's album has the cardboard cut-outs that it initially came with. Plus the inner booklet with Magical Mystery Tour. I also have Beatles '65, Something New, Meet The Beatles, Revolver, Rubber Soul...all of them still on the Capitol Label.
I remember being floored when the White Album [being a 'double album'] cost $6.98 when 1st released & thinking what an exhorbitant amount of $$$ that was.
I also own a bunch of their 45s & still being in the pictured sleeve. Been offered a lotta money for my collection, but I'm not in the market to sell such masterpieces. 1 last thought -- I think the way Side 2 of Abbey Road [which came out on their Apple Label] was coordinated...the way each song [from Mean Mr Mustard to The End] just flows into the next 1...is totally brilliant.
