About this record
The 2003 European Parlophone pressing of Let It Be... Naked carries a distinctive rim-text variant—the label credits include the copyright year 2003, a detail absent from later first pressings and all subsequent reissues.
Pressed by Record Industry and stamped in the dead wax with matrix 5954380 1A1 SRz (side one) and 5954380 1B1 SRz (side two), this 180-gram vinyl edition arrived as a gatefold package with a 20-page booklet and a 7-inch bonus disc of studio fragments, making it a collectible first-edition artifact of the 2003 remaster project.
What drives its value
This pressing commands a steep price curve driven by condition and scarcity. A Mint copy reaches 422.43 USD, while a VG+ drops to 289.03 USD and a VG settles at 200.10 USD—a spread that reflects the album's desirability and the vulnerability of the gatefold sleeve to handling wear.
Currently 40 copies are listed for sale, with the lowest asking 186.78 USD. Demand outpaces supply: 3,270 collectors want it against 6,738 who own one, signaling strong but not extreme competition.
The European pressing holds its value above the concurrent US Capitol and Canadian Apple releases because the rim-text variant and the Record Industry plant attribution make it a first-edition marker; later 2010 reprints show visible degradation in polygraphy and paper stock, cementing the 2003 original's premium.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number 07243 595438 0 2 on both the spine and label, paired with the Parlophone and Apple Records imprints. The dead-wax runout must read 5954380 1A1 SRz on side one and 5954380 1B1 SRz on side two to verify the Record Industry plant pressing.
Inspect the label rim text for the copyright notice that reads ℗ 2003 THE COPYRIGHT IN THIS—the presence of the year 2003 distinguishes this first pressing from later variants that omit it. Check the gatefold interior for the misprint where "recording" and "is" are fused into "recordingis" as a single word; corrected pressings split them properly.
The 180-gram vinyl should feel substantial; verify the included 7-inch bonus disc and 20-page booklet are present and unwarped. Grade the gatefold for creasing, seam splits, and ink fade, as the glossy cover stock shows wear quickly.

Release notes
This version has a different rim text on labels: ℗ 2003 THE COPYRIGHT IN THIS... in comparison to the following release with the rim text: ℗ THE COPYRIGHT IN THIS... (the year 2003 is missing)
This version is very similar to (15057593) - but the LPs have different pressing rings, as shown on the labels images.
Heavyweight 180g vinyl pressing. Gatefold glossy cover.
Includes a 12" x 12" 20-page booklet and an additional 7" disc with 20 song-fragments: "Fly On The Wall": "A Unique Insight Into The Beatles At Work In Rehearsal And In The Studio During January 1969".
Generic anti-static die-cut poly-lined dust inner sleeve without corners (only the LP).
This "...Naked" -LP was mixed and remastered from the original 1969 recorded master-tapes and comes without "Dig it" and "Maggie Mae," two titles of the 1970 "Let It Be" release but with "Don't Let Me Down" that is not on Phil Spector's reproduced remix from 1970. "Fly On The Wall" (7" Disc) consists of snippets of conversations and song-fragments as they were recording the album. None of them are numbered on the 7"-cover or in the booklet. They are edited here in a numbered track-list to give an overview for orientation.
Printed in the EU.
The earliest gatefold jacket & 7" sleeve has a misprint where credits are written. The words "recordingis" are written as one word. Later 1st pressings have the phrase "recording is" correctly printed as two words. The second pressing from 2010 has pronounced differences: polygraphy darker, less contrast, paper thinner, gatefold sleeve has a smaller size. Difference in color is particularly noticeable on the back of the sleeve. In addition, the cover of second edition has is smaller sizes in width and height.

Frequently asked
What makes the 2003 European pressing different from the US Capitol version?
The European Parlophone pressing carries catalogue 07243 595438 0 2 and was pressed by Record Industry, with matrix codes stamped 5954380 1A1 SRz and 5954380 1B1 SRz. The US Capitol release uses a different catalogue number (CDP 7243 5 95713 2 4) and pressing plant. More importantly, this European edition includes a copyright year (2003) on the label rim, a detail that vanishes on later pressings, making it a true first-edition marker.
Is a VG+ copy worth buying at current market rates?
A VG+ copy is estimated at 289.03 USD according to the price guide. With 40 copies currently for sale and the lowest asking price at 186.78 USD, you may find negotiable examples below the guide estimate. However, VG+ represents light play and minimal sleeve wear—acceptable for a 20-year-old gatefold—so the grade justifies the premium over a VG copy (200.10 USD) if you prioritize sound quality and cover appearance.
Why does the 2010 reissue matter to collectors of the 2003 original?
The 2010 second pressing exhibits pronounced degradation: darker polygraphy with less contrast, thinner paper stock, a smaller gatefold jacket, and notably duller color on the back cover. These production cuts make the 2003 first pressing the preferred edition for serious collectors. The rim-text variant (with 2003 printed) further cements the 2003 as the true original, ensuring its value remains insulated from the later reprint's lower production quality.
What condition should I expect at the lowest asking price of 186.78 USD?
At 186.78 USD, you are likely purchasing a copy grading between VG (200.10 USD guide value) and VG+ (289.03 USD guide value), possibly with minor surface noise, light sleeve creasing, or both. The price sits below the VG guide estimate, suggesting either a dealer discount, negotiable listing, or a copy with minor but acceptable flaws. Request detailed photos to confirm the gatefold integrity and vinyl surface before committing.
How do I verify I have the earliest gatefold printing with the 'recordingis' misprint?
Open the gatefold and examine the interior credits page. The earliest pressings contain the typographical error where "recording" and "is" are printed as one word: "recordingis." Later first pressings corrected this to two separate words. This misprint, combined with the 2003 copyright year on the label rim and the Record Industry matrix codes (5954380 1A1 SRz / 5954380 1B1 SRz), confirms you hold the first-edition variant—the most sought version among collectors.
