First off, this is NOT an audiophile review. I am reviewing this release from a purely aesthetic point of view. This stereo MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR mini LP SHM-CD is very good! The pasted on mini LP cover and gatefold jacket are perfect, and the 24-page full color picture book is beautifully reproduced. Overall, this is almost identical to the Mono Box counterpart, except of course, the mono vs. stereo identifications on the spine. The one flaw many of the mini LPs in this set unfortunately feature is not an issue with this release. The title on the spine is flawless. This encore release features a resealable outer sleeve with a blue sticker (as opposed to the 1st pressing red sticker), a nice OBI, the 2009 booklet identical to the one released with the digipak version, and an additional booklet with song lyrics in English. Also included is a rice paper sleeve and the reproduced white inner sleeve to house the disc itself, as it was with the original UK-released album. The actual disc features a reproduced CAPITOL lable. Overall, a good collectable! There is but one flaw, for which I have deducted a star. The disc itself appears faded. The contrast of the black background and white lettering is slightly off, and the color not as bold as that of the Mono Box counterpart. Not a major issue, but disappointing none the less on what would otherwise be a highlight of this series.
