NOTES
Yes, that rocks! A one-to-one Please Please Me-"copy", a release unique to Germany, stereo audio in a superb quality, fresh authentic and with absolutely no distortion! And for those among you who're not familiar with the German language - let's enjoy a short extract: "There we go, here they are, the vivacious guys from Liverpool, the ones who give us hell! The young lions, giving off clouds of smoke right out of their guitars. And, hey, we love to introduce them..." - Not kidding, this (much longer) text is what you find on the cover's reverse side.
This first press was published same week as the "original" Please Please Me, which, in Germany, was available to allied armed forces only (February 10, 1964, ZTOX 5550 on R/W/Gold Odeon, stereo, no mono version) and hence had to be "substituted" by something comparable for the domestic market. It's published on the Dark Red "HoerZu" label, with the Old HoerZu logo on its surface. As a "topping", trail-off on Side A has a 1X Matrix, which indicates a very early pressing.
Publisher and major shareholder of "HoerZu" Electrola (prior to The Beatles mostly busy with German traditionals) moreover came up with a unique cover and the original U.K. track listing of the Fab's first album, released in both stereo and mono. As virtually everywhere in the world, this "additional" publication was also due to the beginning of Beatlemania (we remember the release of 45er I Want To Hold Your Hand short before as well as the Beatles' performance in America's most noted Ed Sullivan Show.)
This copy's stereo sound quality is simply overwhelming.
Please see grading details for a more elaborate description of the record's condition.
IMPORTANT NOTE for GERMAN BIDDERS: Please constact us before bidding, for otherwise we will remove your bid without prior notice. This is in view of constantly recurring problems, often caused by language. It's NOT an offense. Collectors want harmony and consensus, not trouble.

1st Class Packaging
We are Collectors, hence every record is stored (and will be sent) in a sophisticated way. Many experienced collectors were thrilled by our unique, bullet-proof "packing technicque". Original cover, inner sleeve(s), prospective inserts, and/or whatever may come across, are stored separately. The vinyl sits in a neutral antistatic, padded inner sleeve, which is housed in a stable, neutral cardboard cover. Package is protected by one (or more) transparent plastic sleeves. Finally, all items are being wrapped with thick bubble foil and go to a professional record mailer, which is then being properly sealed with water-resistant tape.
(PLEASE NOTE that pictured record is an EXAMPLE only. It is NOT the item up for auction. Thank you.) Record Grading
Visual Grading Cover Front EX Cover Back EX Cover Spine EX Inner Sleeve(s) [N/A]
(plain) Label Side A NM- Label Side B NM- Vinyl Side A NM- Vinyl Side B NM- Audio Grading Side A EX Side B EX- We use superb vinyl equipment with its heart being an Ortofon real-diamond system and gold plated contacts all around.
If available, audible checks were performed with an ORTOFON Pro-Ject Audio system connected to a DENON PMA 520-AE amplifier, using a Sennheiser 350 headset. Remarks As for the Cover and related issues, please refer to pictures provided right after. Spine is perfectly readable.
The fully laminated cover is completely glossy, made of strong cardboard. Absolutely clean insertion slot, no cuts, nothing.
Front of cover is fine & clean. Small (corrected) seam split on top and bottom. Cover's back side shows a "D" writen in Blue ink on left rim, ring wear, something yellows, hence EX/VG+.
Both labels are absolutely clean. No writings, stains, tears, or spots. Lill spindle hole wear.
Vinyl is shiny, both sides, with very few hairlines, which are virtually invisible. This record has been played very few times only. A clear NM/NM-.
Regarding audio, plays perfectly thru, no jumps, or skips. Side A has some bg noise, Side B has two clicks during first song.
Please keep in mind that an opinion is bound to be subjective. Refer to pictures, provided extensively.
