    I hope this can be categorised as memoribilia* even though I bought it earlier this year. To be honest, it was an impulse purchase from a record shop that's situation in the same mall as the flea-market I used to visit while I was in Malaysia. I was on my way out of the mall and thought I'd pop in and have a look at the vinyl version of the reissue as it was the first one I'd seen. At this point, I was unaware that Apple had done a CD version and the sales lady was quick to tell me about the CD version and showed it to me as she could see I was swooning over the vinyl version. Although a big 'Fabs' fan, I never rated the 'White Album' one of their best (ducks for cover waiting for the brickbats flung my way from irate White Album disciples!) but decided on a whim to get it, if nothing else for all the goodies inside this set, the poster, lyric sheet, outtakes, demos and the book. I have opened it but kept the authenticity stickers and really enjoyed reading the book that's an integral part of the packaging. I haven't gotten round to playing the CDs as yet as I'm still in the process of moving back to the UK, so my personal effects are en-route to the UK as I'm writing this.
    As with my other collectables that I share, I didn't buy it to sell it, I bought it because it's a great item and even though not on vinyl, well worth having as something to enjoy - even though it was a bit expensive.
    By the way, playing my other CD of the 'White Album' has changed my less than positive thoughts on it. In my humble opinion, it's not their best, but listening with fresh ears, has made me more appreciative of the tracks as a whole, (except, Revolution 9, of course!)
    (* Hi Mods, if this isn't classified as memorabilia according to CW, then please let me know and I'll delete it, thanks, Simon.)

      Hi Thomas, you're absolutely right and I forgot to mention them. The four photos are included inside, along with the other goodies.
