Description
The Beatles 7 inch record carry case.
Original 1960's Beatles memorabilia!!
These sort of carriers were very popular in the late Fifties and into the Sixties, with plastic pockets inside to hold sixteen 7? singles, and retractable handles, so you could carry your singles to a friend’s house or party. Most of them had jazzy designs printed onto the plastic outsides, but here they had a printed photo of the group sealed into the plastic. A nice bit of memorabilia.
This is from the mid 60's. The case was licensed by PYX but it was being sold by Mod Fashions in London, some time before Mod became a social / fashion trend. It wasn’t cheap either, 12/6d in 1964 plus it was “dainty, light, yet hard wearing”! The group had already produced four or five of their biggest UK hits by this time and everyone was wanting to cash in with merchandise.
The case itself is in used condition and by no means perfect. One of the handles has come lose so moves around more than it should. (See the last but one picture)
The last picture is an original newspaper advert for this item from the 1960's.
There are marks/scuffs on the case, Please study the pictures!
its very rare that these become available for sale, so Don't miss out! At the time of listing there were no others on eBay!
A nice bit of authentic 60's Beatles merchandise!
UK POST ONLY!!
Will be posted via Royal mail Signed for.
Thanks for looking!
