Description
I have collected records since I was very young, however Iincreasingly I have realised that I have far too many, and soI have been slowly trying to rationalise my extensive collection over the years, I have sold many major rarities over the years, from major BEATLES and 60s rarities, through PUNK and PROG ROCK, CLASSICAL and BLUES. Basically I've had alot of very rare records and in dribs and drabs have sold them off. I've never had negative feedback, and had many repeat customers.
I will only post completely insured and tracked.
All singles come with the sleeves they're pictured with, I don't use repros,so if it's with what looks like an original sleeve, it is an original sleeve!
Here we have a lovely rarity. Sometimes attributed to 1969 pressings, these central Polo Ring copies (copies with one large and one small ring around the central spindle hole) are actually much more in line with the 1972 copies that were released with boxed EMI logos at 6 o'clock on their labels. They further resemble the early 70s pressings as they have "tapered edges" whereby the rim of the disc closes to a point (in side profile) rather than the 60s EMI straight edge. If this is loosing you, then don't worry, this pressing possibly isn't for you ... yet! Perhaps you've not delved deep enough into the murky depths of Beatles Collecting for this record, but your time will come,your time will come! These initial 1970s copies have special labels with no central SIUK, these are rare and sought after by Beatles collectors. Paperback Writer is a tricky one to find too!
Record Condition: VG+/EX- really nice surfaces, with just light surface marks/ featherlight withdrawal paper-linesmostly visible when angled across a strong direct light. Wonderfully clear audio! Very Nice! Labels Condition: VG+ Really nice clean labels with just light handling and spindle trails etc. Also a faint mark visible where a small sticker has been at about 10 o'clock on the labels, a very small rub on the "Rain" text,and very slight signs of age related mottling. Not perfect, but very nice!
