The Beatles - Ain't She Sweet - ATCO 6308
In my opinion this is the hardest to find of all The Beatles Picture Sleeves and 45s. Unlike most Beatles records these Picture Sleeves do not turn up and when they do they have been well loved. You have to think, this lot is 50 years old but this single looks like its never been played which is very rare. Absolutely Gorgeous label and 45 EX (8/10) only some sleeve wear. The Sleeve is somewhere between a VG+ (6/10) and VG++ (7/10). It has good clean lines, easy to read and still vivid coloring. The Seams are all intact only some slight ring wear on this one. There are no tears or wrinkles which is very rare for this sleeve. This is a great example and one of the better ones to be on eBay in quite awhile. Good Luck! I will be listing other Beatles records this week so please check out my auctions.

CONDITION
RECORD = please read description.
PICTURE SLEEVE / COVER = please read description.
INNER SLEEVE = N/A
LABELS = above
GRADING SYSTEM
Mint = Only reserved for Sealed records or store stock new 45s. 10/10 Top Copies
Near Mint = The record may have been played once or twice on good equipment. Near Mint vinyl should sound and look New when dust is cleaned off and the records played with a properly aligned cartridge and good needle. A Near Mint cover should be one that either looks new or still has the shrink wrap on it. Near Mint is usually reserved for record collectors that don't mind spending premium in order to get the best quality copy of a recording. 9 out of 10
Excellent = 8 out of 10 A record should have maybe one blemish such as fingernail or scuff on the surface that does not affect play. It should be veiwed as Near Mint to most collectors, but for the super picky collector such as myself that check them with a 100 watt light bulb before it ever gets played, it is veiwed as 8/10.
Very Good ++ = 7 Out of 10. A VG++ record may have a few blemishes on each side and will still play with High Fidelity.
Very Good + = VG+ is a grade that I use for most lps that have been played a handful of times with care. It may have one or two scratches (should not be feelable with finger) that DO NOT affect play or some sleeve scuffs from being pulled and played. When put on your record platter a VG+ record should sound great. There should not be overwhelming background noise (when properly cleaned). Pops and Skips from deep scratches are unacceptable. You should be able to listen to a VG+ record time and time again and not have to worry about damaging it because its not in top collectable shape anyway. 6 out of 10
Very Good = A vg record has been played numerous times, such as party records that were stacked on top of each other instead of being returned to the inner sleeve. These should play with background noise but will not hurt your needle. 45s are a different story. These will usually play well even though there are numerous scratches. Don't be afraid of surface scratches, your stylus takes a worse beating every time it crosses the matrix numbers in the trail off. 5 out of 10
Remember to achieve this sound quality you need to have your equipment properly set up. Never put too much weight on your stylus, 1.5 grams is sufficient for most turntables.
