Incredibly rare original Stereo Version 2 issue of The Beatles “Introducing the Beatles”. The cardboard Mono cover in incredible condition and still remaining in the original factory shrink wrap contains an original Stereo sticker on the front. This gold-foil sticker with two oval “Stereo” logos is perhaps one of the rarest stickers that were affixed to the Mono cover of “Introducing the Beatles” The cover is practically in perfect condition, only having a small price tag in the upper right-hand corner on the front underneath the shrink wrap. The vinyl is almost as good as the cover and has the black labels with a VJ logo above the VEE-JAY RECORDS silver print along with a “Stereo” banner in bold typeface at 9 o’clock. Pressed at Monarch’s pressing plant in Los Angeles, the vinyl contains the ”63-3402” and “63-3403” catalog numbers which start with an “S” prefix and also have the ”Stereo” word. The “S” prefix and the “Stereo” word in the runout groove are an absolute guarantee of this Stereo copy’s authenticity. The matrix numbers also contain the factory identifiers including the “MR in a Circle” and Delta (△) numbers. The full matrix numbers are as follows: Side 1 - S 63-3402-STEREO URJ △6313 MR in a Circle; Side 2 - S 63-3403-STEREO URJ △6313x MR in a Circle. The album comes with an original Vee-Jay Records red background “The Greatest Gospel Sound On Record Is On Vee-Jay Records” inner sleeve.The stunning cover is in Mint Minus condition. The only flaw of the cover would be a price tag in the upper right-hand corner that is affixed underneath the fully intact shrink wrap. The original red background Vee-Jay inner sleeve is in Near Mint condition and doesn't have any splits. The heavyweight shiny glossy vinyl is in Near Mint Minus condition barely having any scuffs from the inner sleeve. The labels are in beautiful condition, completely wear- and scuff-free, only having a couple of very light spindle marks. The vinyl sounds amazing with a vivid punchy Stereo sound.
