THIS LITTLE GIRL
FIRST I WOULD DESCRIBE THE SLEEVE AS EXCELLENT, LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH FLAPS FOLDED OVER ONTO AN UNLAMINATED BACK SLEEVE, FRONT COVER JUST HAS A LITTLE DAMAGE TO CORNERS, OPENING CORNERS HAVE A LITTLE RUB WEAR VERY MINOR, BACK COVER IS A LITTLE GRUBBY LOOKS WORSE ON THE PICTURE, COVER PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD. PATENTS PENDING. BACK COVER HAS A 6 MM MINOR TEAR JUST LEFT OF TRACK LISTING ON THE OPENING SIDE, FIRST PRESS COVER ONLY COME WITH ''PATENTS PENDING TEXT'' COMPLETE WITH FLAPBACK SLEEVE.
I WOULD GRADE THE VINYL AS VERY GOOD AS IT DOES SHOW A LOT OF SURFACE MARKS, BUT IT PLAYS LIKE IT'S EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT THERE IS OF COURSE THE POP AND CLICK HERE AND THERE BUT THEY DON'T COME ACROSS VERY LOAD DURING PLAY, THE ONLY TRACK 3 SIDE 2 SUFFERS FROM ANY MAJOR INTERFEARENCE, BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU THE ALBUM PLAYS ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITH NO JUMPS OR SKIPS, I CAN ASSURE YOU IT PLAYS EXCELLENT DESPITE ALL THE MARKS.

LABEL RIM TEXT, SOLD IN THE U.K. SUBJECT TO RESALE PRICE CONDITIONS LABEL TEXT, PUBLISHED 1965 WITH CIRCLED P,LARGE YELLOW PARLOPHONE TEXT AND YELLOW SPOT ( WITH £ MOTIFF IN THE YELLOW SPOT ) TRADE MARK LOGO, MADE IN GT.

THE LABEL IS ALSO IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS IT DOESEN'T SHOW MUCH SPINDLE WEAR.

SIDE 2 STAMPED MATRIX XEX 546 - 1G ( ALSO HAS THE NUMBER 1 AND THE LETTER G STAMPED IN THE RUN OFF GROOVE AREA )
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THIS IS A GENUINE FIRST PRESS ISSUE AND YOU DON'T SEE ALBUM FOR SALE VERY OFTEN I WOULD SAY THIS IS RARER THAN THE BEATLES PLEASE,PLEASE ME ALBUM ON BLACK / GOLD LABEL DESIGN. THIS IS TRUELY A FIRST PRESS AND VERY RARE AND WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER IF IT WAS MINT, BUT STILL VERY VERY RARE.
