The Beatles — Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band | 1967 U.S. Mono LP | MAS 2653

A collectible original-era U.S. mono copy of The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, released by Capitol Records in 1967 under catalog number MAS 2653. MAS 2653 is the original U.S. mono configuration; the album also received a separate stereo release as SMAS 2653.

This copy is especially appealing because the package retains both important original components:

Original psychedelic inner sleeve

Original Sgt. Pepper cutout insert — intact

The record has also been fully play-tested and performs exceptionally well for a nearly 60-year-old mono pressing. Playback is strong and clear with only occasional minor pops and no persistent background noise or skips.
