THE BEATLES - 'RUBBER SOUL'
1965 UK *MONO* 2nd PRESSING
**GENUINE FACTORY SAMPLE**
This rare 100% genuine 1965 FACTORY SAMPLE 2nd mono pressing is on the UK black & yellow Parlophone label: PMC 1267
Both labels display the 'Sold in UK..' and 'Parlophone Co Ltd...' rims.
This rare copy carries a genuine 1965 'Factory Sample' sticker on the side 1 label.
The 'KT' tax/price code is visible on the side 2 label.
Housed in the rarer front laminated, tri-flipback 'E.J. Day' mono cover.
Complete with its original 'Use Emitex' polylined inner-sleeve.
Matrix numbers: XEX 579-4 & XEX 580-4
Stamper numbers: 5/GMO & 4/GMA
Visual: EXCELLENT PLUS
Extremely bright and clean surfaces bearing just some wispy paper hairlines directly under a halogen desk lamp.
There are scuffs or scratches anywhere and the thick, sharp edged vinyl lies 100% flat both sides on the turntable without dishing or warping.
Audio: NEAR MINT
Hardly played, the sound is warm and clear without any traces of crackle or background intereference on any track.
Even the easily damaged 'Michelle' sounds bright and clear with no hint of groove damage.
Both run-ins and all bands play completely silently without any interference. There are no clicks or pops, jumps or repeats anywhere.
Cover: EXCELLENT PLUS
Clean and strong with a vibrant front image retaining its high-gloss laminate, bearing just a few small creases toward the opening edge but no 'thumbnails'.
There is a slight bruise to the lower right corner but all others are clean & square. Both opening edges are clean, sharp and unworn.
The rear panel is bright, clean and white with no age-discolouration, marks, writing or missing paper.
All 'flipbacks' are intact and all seams and the spine are unstressed and unsplit with no missing laminate.
Strict visual & audible gradings under intense direct light & at volume on high-end audio equipment
