HISTORIC VINTAGE VERSION ONE EARLY 1964 STEREO VEE JAY RECORDS, ' INTRODUCING THE BEATLES ' STEREOPHONIC ' AD BACK ' FIRST ISSUE ALBUM IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION! THIS IS IN THE TOP FIVE EXAMPLES KNOWN TO EXIST IN THE WORLD!

HISTORIC VINTAGE 1964 U.S. VERSION ONE ISSUE OF THE BEATLES VERY FIRST VEE JAY RECORDS ALBUM FROM EARLY 1964! THIS IS REFERRED TO AS THE ' AD BACK ' VERSION OF THE ' INTRODUCING THE BEATLES ' ALBUM AND IT IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION! (Vee Jay VJLPS-1062.) I RARELY EVER SEE THEM THIS NICE! CHECK THE PHOTOS OUT AND BEHOLD ONE OF THE TOP FIVE SURVIVING EXAMPLES IN THE WORLD! THIS ONE HAS FOUR SHARP CORNERS! NO WEAR FRONT OR BACK! BOTTOM SPINE HAS A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF WEAR. THE SEAMS GO ALL THE WAY TO THE ENDS ON ALL CORNERS! THIS LP WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A FOLDED FLAP STYLE BAGGY LIKE THE ONE YOU SEE IN THE IMAGES. A COUPLE OF VERY SMALL VERY CLEAR REMNANTS OF THAT ARE ON THE BACK. AGAIN, THEY ARE CLEAR AND SO HARD TO SEE. ONE IS ABOUT 1/3" ROUND, THE OTHER ABOUT 1/8". THEY MAY BE REMOVABLE, BUT I DIDN'T TRY. THAT'S IT! NO SEAMS SPLITS! A VERY FEW TINY STRESS POINTS ON THE BOTTOM WHERE THE SLICK IS WRAPPED TO THE BACK, BUT SO VERY VERY MINIMAL. OVERALL, THIS IS A STUNNING NEAR MINT- COVER WITH THE ADDITION OF THE TWO TINY WRAP PIECES. NOTE ALSO THE SPINE HAS 100% OF ALL THE PRINT TOP TO BOTTOM AND THE COVER RETAINS 100% OF HIS ORIGINAL FINISH SHINE! NOT EVEN ANY  WEAR AT THE BOTTOM OR TOP CENTERS. NO DULLING THERE. SO HARD TO FIND EXAMPLES RETAINING THOSE ATTRIBUTES! THE ' SEARS WRAP BAG' YOU SEE IN THE IMAGES IS NOT THE ONE THAT CAME WITH IT. I INCLUDE IT ONLY AS A REFERENCE TO THE TYPE OF BAG THIS SET WAS ISSUED WITH. I AM INCLUDING IT WITH THE LP. THERE IS A FANTASTIC BACK STORY TO THIS ONE! IN 2005, THIS ALBUM MADE IT'S WAY TO A CHICAGO, IL. RECORD STORE WHOSE CLERK 'INSISTED' WHEN TALKING TO THE CUSTOMER THAT THE LP WAS A FAKE ISSUE DUE SIMPLY TO IT'S INCREDIBLE CONDITION! IMAGINE THAT! ... OF COURSE, IT'S INDEED, A 100% GUARANTEED ORIGINAL! SO... THE CUSTOMER NATURALLY PURCHASED IT FOR $2.99 + TAX! YES, THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED AND IS A TRUE ACCOUNTING OF HOW IT'S PRESENT OWNER OBTAINED IT OVER 10 YEARS AGO! THE RECORD ITSELF HAS NEAR MINT LABELS AND VG+++ TO NM- VINYL! REALLY GREAT! SO HERE'S YOUR CHANCE AT A TRULY WORLD CLASS TOP 5 EXAMPLE OF THIS HISTORIC ALBUM! (retains original early style VJ company inner sleeve. It has a split on one side.) **THIS ALBUM SET WILL INCLUDE MY LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY!**

 (***Will be packed securely in strong boxing to insure safe arrival.***)
