Label: Parlophone - 45 rpm Microgroove Test Record - 'KT' Relief next to the centre hole - Made in England - Recorded 1963.
Matrix: 7TCE 765 - 1N KT & LPFB. (Stamped)
Condition > The record was listened to in full before grading.
- Record: there are many lines and swipes visible over the surface.
- Sound: In the beginning, during +- 1 cm, the record plays with a crackle (during Anna). After that the sound becomes very good with now and then a surface noise or a few small ticks. On the whole, the music is still dominating the imperfections. Even during that first cm. The records doesn't skip, the needle doesn't jump. It is still a unique piece of Beatles History from 1963.
- Cover: Blanco Sleeve

G
Record: you can see many hairlines and/or small scuffs across the surface
Sound: is still good with sometimes a mild surface noise and/or some short patches of minor, sometimes, mediocre ticking with maybe a plop here or there. Hear-play can be slightly infected in some very small zones. Overall, the sound is still dominating these imperfections.
Cover: there is some wear on corners, edges and/or spine. There can be some small splits (max 0,50 cm) next to the inlet. There is some surface-wear like ring-wear or maybe some discolorations.
Not so good:> only when the record is a very rare one
Record: is not really 100 % shiny anymore. There are lines, scuffs and/or swipes across the surface.
Sound: there is a moderate surface noise, throughout or intermittent, and/or some patches with serious ticks and/or plops. The record doesn't skip. Hear-play is infected in some zones, but the record is still fine for general listening, nothing more.
Cover: there is real wear on corners, edges and spine. There are splits in the seams, serious ring-wear, or surface-wear. Look at the photo to have a better idea of the condition.
