The Beatles Please Please Me PMC1202 Mono South Rhodesia / South Africa Version
Description found with the record, we guess, from when our family member who collected these originally bought this record:
Matrices:  Side 1: XEX 421      Side 2: XEX 422 Mothers / Stampers: Side 1:   None  Side 2: None Tax Code:  None
Condition Vinyl:  In the dead wax run out area on both sides is etched "MADE IN S. RHODESIA". This dates this record to pre-1965 - see Info of South Rhodesia below it existed from 1923-1965, then became just "RHODESIA", so this is 1963, or 1964 as the term "Southern" was first used in 1898 and dropped from normal usage in 1964. Condition Labels:  Blue Parlophone Labels
The Colony of Southern Rhodesia was a self-governing British Crown colony in southern Africa from 1923 to 1980, equivalent in territorial terms to modern Zimbabwe. Following its Unilateral Declaration of Independence in 1965 it existed as the self-declared, unrecognised state of Rhodesia until 1979, when it reconstituted itself under indigenous African rule as Zimbabwe Rhodesia, which also failed to win overseas recognition. After a period of interim British control following the Lancaster House Agreement in December 1979, the country achieved internationally recognised independence as Zimbabwe in April 1980. "Southern" was first used in 1898 and dropped from normal usage in 1964. --END OF DESCRIPTION--
