  The Beatles Please Please Me Gold Mono - 1st press DJ label Type 2a

 

 

 

The Beatles Please Please Me 1st dick James press type 2a.

One of the rarest records you are likely to see, and the only one I've ever known of.

Featured on some websites (that I'm now not allowed to publish links to), as a 1st press Type C  , this copy was pressed on an even older machine that was typically last used in the late 50's.

The difference here, is the indented and outdented pressing rings in the middle of the label, and this was pressed for one run only with the mother code no's being 1 P / 1 GG. 

What's so fantastic about this is that the condition is first class and the Labels are simply wonderful. unfortunately, It does have 1 or 2 very light superfluous needle marks if you look at an angle to the correct light, but really, otherwise it just looks unplayed with no spindle marks evident, and a gorgeous clear MZT tax code on side 1.

Incidently, to me, the GG on side 2, looks like two separate G's.. maybe this was the very very first press before they took these machines away and used the usual press?!!?  One does wonder where these unusual presses fitted in, but they were never used again on any beatle pressings.

This cover is absolutely first class as well.

Please email me for more photos.

Anyroads, considering none of you out there that collect labels have this label, makes this auction very special indeed.

I am and have always considered myself a Beatlefreak and collector. I am not a dealer, but have many treasures I've collected over the years that I have now decided to part with.
