  The Beatles Love Me Do Demo Original 1 of 250

The Rarest Top sort after record of all time:  The Love me do Demo.

This particular copy was at the very heart of radio play from before the 5th of October 1962 even, and was probably in all probability THE very record that started it all and made the Beatles famous!

It has 5/10/62 hand written near the centre hole which is the release date to let the DJ know what day the 45 was going to be released on, plus other catalogue numbers I'd say from a big radio station at the time (could be the BBC..)

Has obvious wear and tear with many small scratches and has a small crack at the very edge, but plays with no problems. The sound is now a little worn but still playable without any skips, jumps, repeats or sticks but lots of crackle!

Not sure where the 250 ever made bit came from, but I'd say there are a lot less than that out there.

Current or last couple of years eBay prices for this for anything approaching Excellent is currently £12-15K!!!.

To recap, yes this is the very first Beatle Demo with McCartney's name spelt as McArtney, and has "JR" stamped on the run out groove at the 3 O'clock mark & the tax code "ZT" at the 9 O'clock mark on both sides.

Incidentally, I had 100% positive feedback showing until very recently but haven't sold anything in (now) over a year so this has disappeared which isn't very nice :(















Usual methods, but will accept time payments for some of the bigger things. Please ask.

Shipping by FedEx Insured, Tracked Intl Priority when available.

I accept returns for all things except where stated clearly. Thank you

I am and have always considered myself a Beatlefreak and collector. I am not a dealer, but have many treasures I've collected over the years that I have now decided to part with.
