The Beatles: The Collection was a vinyl box set of UK released Beatles LPs, remastered at half speed from the original stereo master recordings, except for Magical Mystery Tour which was mastered from Capitol Records‘ submasters with the last three tracks in rechanneled stereo. Each album was pressed on virgin vinyl by the Victor Company of Japan (JVC) ensuring the best sound quality possible. The album covers were replaced with photographs of tape boxes and log sheet, which included splitting ‚The Beatles‘ into 2 separate covers. The original album covers were included in a 40-pg booklet which also featured a certificate of authenticity on the inside front cover to certify the copy as „one of a limited number of Original Master Recording™ sets manufactured by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab.“ The certificate included the „Limited Edition Number“.
\nMFSL repressed a second run of the Beatles Box Set for a total production run of 25,000 until October 1985.<\/p>\n
This release is a first pressing (1982). Initial copies included an 8-pg „Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab“ catalog for „Summer \/ Fall 1982“ and a „Certificate of Limited Warranty“.<\/p>\n
