This is the greatest record that I have ever sold!

In 1962 The Beatles released 250 promotional 45's of Love Me Do which were given to Radio Disc Jockeys and various members of the media in order to promote the first single from their debut album Please Please Me, this was the very start of musical history, from this one demo record music and the music industry would never be the same again. This auction is for one of those very first promotional singles from where it all began, This auction is for a piece of musical history!

This is a fine example with near perfect labels and nice vinyl surfaces there are some marks but they certainly do not spoil anything, playback is magnificent with just some low level background noise, it is quite overwhelming when listening to this record knowing that this demo changed everything in musical history. I have graded the vinyl surfaces as VG+ with playback being EX.

To make this even more mouth watering this demo comes in it's original 'Special rush' promotional sleeve which only demonstration records had at this time. This sleeve is in remarkable condition and is graded as a strong EX.

You have got to ask yourself how many of these are actually left on the planet and in such complete condition? This is one of the biggest investments you could ever make!

Please look at the pictures in detail and take your time, please ask me any questions you like and I will answer as quickly as I possibly can usually within a few hours.

Good luck to everybody, please enjoy the biggest Beatles auction of 2014!!
