All the coinciding information listed below was found through this website: http://thebeatles-collection.com/wordpress/category/vee-jay-lp   "VJLP 1062 Introducing The Beatles (Version One) – Side 1: master number 63-3402, job number 5702; Side 2: master number 63-3403, job number 5702X."   "MR – Monarch Record, Los Angeles, California"   "Mono label has left justified song titles and songwriters’ credits with “INTRODUCING the BEATLES” in small print. The words “Long Playing” and “Microgroove” do not appear on the label. The trail off areas have the hand etched matrix number 63-3402 and job number 5702 on Side 1 and matrix number 63-3403 and job number 5702-X on Side 2. Both sides have the hand etched date 6-29-63 and initials “Sm" as well as the machine stamped Audio Matrix and “MR” logos. This variation was pressed by Monarch Records."   "The third back cover variation is much more conventional. Although this cover has no liner notes or pictures, it does list the song titles in the thick blank print in two columns. The VJ brackets logo is centered at the top of the cover above the title of the album, which appears in huge black letters. This boring cover variation, hereinafter referred to as the “Titles on Back” cover, is clearly the result of Vee-Jay’s desire to get the album issued as quickly as possible. First version of the “Titles on Back” cover include “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You” title songs. This cover of Introducing The Beatles printed has mono variation only. Front cover slicks without “Printed in U.S.A.”   The cover is VG+ with light ring wear on the top and bottom of the front cover.  There is a small worn area on the upper left part of the cover.  The back cover has the previous owner's last name in yellow marker and has some surface wear and slight ring wear throughout.  Back title printing is lightly offset/ghosted.   The vinyl is VG+ with some light surface scuffs.  Not much surface noise when playing.  Owner's first name is lightly noticeable on Side 1.   This is a heck of a find and thankfully it's in really great condition from being stored away for a number of years.  All the information listed above is exactly what appears on the vinyl and the cover, represented as honestly and accurately as possible.  That said, item is being sold "as is."
