PICTURES: George Harrison / The Apple Years box 1968-1975
Although we reviewed the George Harrison Apple Years 1968-75 box set earlier this month, at that point we didn’t have the opportunity to show you an SDE photo gallery of the box.
We are pleased to correct this now and below you will find an extensive collection of images from the box itself to the hardback book and each individual album (with images of inner sleeves, gatefold artwork and booklets).
The box itself is very impressive. It’s a high quality design, spot varnished and features an ingenious ‘foldaway’ lid that tucks in behind the discs which are secured by slots in the felt housing.
The book, although small, is again really nicely done with gloss varnished photos that look stunning. While the vinyl replica packaging isn’t quite as obsessive as the Japanese issues that many of you will be familiar with, these are still very good with all discs coming in inner sleeves that boast period artwork and Kevin Howlett writes some typically impressive notes in the booklets.
The Apple Years 1968-1975 is out now. Photo gallery below.
