Description
Hello and welcome to this auction for a 'Beatles - Help!' 1969 FINAL 60s MONO vinyl LP!
This particular pressing is the very last sixties MONO pressing, featuring the one box EMI Parlophone label. This particular pressing is highly sought after as it wasn't pressed for very long and also didn't sell very well as mono was pretty much obsolete at this point as stereo systems were the new popular choice. Doesn't come up for sale very often!
Also featured is the rarer mono flipback sleeve without the word 'mono' in the top right corner!
Not another one listed on ebay!
DO NOT MISS OUT!!!
Artist: The Beatles
Title: Help!
Catalogue Number: PMC 1255
Year: 1969
Number of Tracks: 14
Matrix Numbers: -2 -2
Mother Stampers: 3MDT 18ATM
Condition:
Vinyl (visual): Side 1 - there are a lot of scratches and marks on this record (pictured), it's clearly been loved and played. Visually, grades as GOOD. None of the scratches are feelable though! It's a good sign! Looks worse than it sounds. Label is GOOD+. Side 2 - same as Side 1 with less non-feelable scratches.
Audio: I have played the record in it's entirety and it is currently graded as VERY GOOD. There is obviously a lot of crackle and a few pops here and there. However it does not skip, stick or jump on my system! The scratches that are visible are not feelable or deep and only effect playing with a few clicks and pops! As a huge Beatles fan, this was a welcome surprise and a great listen. A deep clean could help improve the quality for sure.
Inner Sleeve: I have replaced the old generic split inner sleeve with a brand new black poly-lined sleeve.
Sleeve: The original 1969 rare mono flipback sleeve is currently rated as GOOD! It has discolouration and creases with a 2" split to the bottom edge. Houses the record very well. No writing or ink anywhere. Please see all pictures! Rare sleeve without the word mono in the top right!
DO NOT MISS OUT!!!
PLEASE SEE ALL PICTURES!!!
As with all the vintage records I sell, I advise a deep clean to enhance the sound quality of the record. Overall, a VERY RARE late sixties mono Beatles record that everyone wishes they owned!
