Description

THIS AUCTION IS FOR THE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS OF THE BEATLES FIRST LP "PLEASE PLEASE ME"

BLACK AND GOLD PARLOPHONE (PMC 1202) AMAZING! FIRST PRESSING OF THIS ULTRA RARITY.

ONE OF THE HOLY GRAILS FOR BEATLES COLLECTORS

HERE ARE THE FACTS:

SLEEVE CONDITION- ORIGINAL LARGE MONO ERNEST.J.DAY&CO 'ANGUS MCBEAN' COVER

NICE CLEAN CRISP READABLE SPINE-THE LAMINATED FRONT OF THE SLEEVE HAS A FEW'CHIPS' OUT OF THE EDGES AND SOME LIGHT STAINING TO THE BOTTOM EDGE-A COUPLE OF LAMINATE CREASES ARE IN EVIDENCE AND THERE ARE SOME CORNER SCUFFS.THE OPENING EDGE IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE WITH A LITTLE FEATHERING ONLY.THE REAR OF THE FLIPBACK IS FAIRLY CLEAN-LIGHT SOILING.AS YOU SEE FROM THE PHOTOS THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE ENVELOPE SLEEVE HAVE A LITTLE MISSING AND THERE IS SOME TAPE STAINING TO THE BOTTOM.THERE IS A NAME WRITTEN IN FOUNTAIN PEN INK ON THE TOP RIGHT CORNER-

OVERALL A REASONABLY GOOD SLEEVE-NOT OFCOURSE THE MAIN REASON FOR SELLING THIS RECORD.

THE VINYL PLAYING SURFACE ON BOTH SIDES HAS VISIBLE MARKS AND SEVERAL LIGHT SCRATCHES HOWEVER DUE TO THE QUALITY OF THE PRESSING THIS RECORD PLAYS AMZINGLY WELL WITH SOME SURFACE CRACKLE AND POP-I WOULD CAREFULLY GRADE AS A UK GUIDE GOOD TO AVOID ANYONES DISAPPOINTMENT-THE MUSIC CAN OFCOURSE IS AVAILABLE ON MUCH MORE ACCESSIBLE COPIES/ISSUES.

THIS IS THE VERY FIRST MONO PRESSING WITH GOLD ON BLACK PRINT-UK ISSUE PMC 1202 - Z T STAMPED ON SIDE ONE OF LABEL.

THE MATRIX NUMBERS ARE XEX 421-1N / XEX 422-1N.

THE PRINT ITSELF IS PRETTY CLEAR WITH SOME FADING AND SPINDLE MARKS MAINLY TO SIDE ONE.THERE IS SLIGHT SCUFFING AROUND THE HOLE.

SIDE TWO LABEL HAS MORE SERIOUS SCUFFING AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE AS SHOWN BUT STRONGER PRINT.THERE IS ALSO A FINE LABEL 'CREASE' ACROSS THE TRACK LISTING-NOTHING TOO SERIOUS THOUGH.

THIS AMAZING RARITY HAS GOT TO BELONG IN A CHERISHED COLLECTION AND THIS COPY IS IN GREAT SHAPE OVERALL FOR THE AGE.....ASK ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS VIA E-MAIL IF YOU NEED TO.......
