Description

6 x original 1960s Beatles 7" singles 45rpm.

All have been played, but not since 1980 at the lastest.

All in varying states of repair; some with original covers; some not. All covers tatty.

Don't know how well (or if) they play as I no longer have a turntable.

All in need a professional clean; I have not touched them.

These belonged to my family. My father bought them new. He was one of the screenwriters of the movie Help! and knew the boys. In fact I met them myself on the set of Help! (when they were on Salisbury Plain) and spent time with them in their winnebago playing i-spy and eating chocolates which were called Munchies (was it their idea of a joke to feed a 5 year old munchies?)

I'll list them in chronological order. Please note I'M NOT AN EXPERT.

Not original cover as) too early for 1967 and b)it's German - but it's a FAB cover from Odeon with really great and groovy pictures of the boys (see disc on top of pile in photo).

As I said I'm not an expert and these are in played condition. The sleeves, original or not - are tatty. There is nothing mint about this collection.

Photos of each, all or any of the discs available on request. As are answers to any of your questions.

Thanks for looking and happy bidding.
