Description

My Kool Kollectibles is very proud to present this SUPER-MEGA RARE PROMOTIONAL COPY from the Beatles & Vee Jay Records entitled From Me To You/Thank You Girl (Vee Jay 522) originally issued to radio stations only in May 1963 in the U.S. Only the Beatles 2nd U.S. released single, this one is indeed rare! Both songs had only been recorded 2 months prior in March 1963 and were released by Vee Jay Records based out of Chicago Illinois. The record did very poorly...but at least sold in bigger numbers than their first release in February 1963. To add to this rarity, this is also a very rare white label promotional copy, issued only to radio stations. According to Bruce Spizer's excellant book "The Beatles Records on Vee Jay"  (1998) there were approximately less than 1000 units pressed of this jewel...many were thrown out as sales were poor. Beatlemania had not yet caught on...but things would change immensely in 8 months! This record features the all white label with oval Vee Jay logo. The words Disc Jockey Advance Sample and NOT FOR SALE on the label. Grey ring around the label. 100% original as the master numbers are etched in the trail off area as well as the "ARP" stamped logo, indicating the pressing occured in Owosso, Michigan. The record itself shows some wear & age. The labels are fairly nice. The A-side has  the Letter "J" in red pen and some ring wear. B-side is much nicer-just a hint of ring wear. The vinyl would grade a strong VG...maybe a VG+. No deep scratches or scuffs...just some overall wear. Comes housed in the correct period Vee Jay stock sleeve...which would grade VG...has one side seam split about half way. The sleeve alone is collectible! This is one of the most sought after Beatle promo records out there! No reserve! Insurance is required on this one and will be based on final selling price!  Bid with confidence...click on my feedback history!
