ORIGINAL CAPITOL RECORDS 1ST PRESSING FACTORY SEALED COPY

 

 

THE BEATLES ~ THE EARLY BEATLES (1965)

 

 

CIRCA 1965/66 MONOPHONIC PRESSING WITH THE T-2309 CATALOG NUMBER


            


Guaranteed original 1st Mono circa 1965/66 pressing factory sealed copy released by Capitol Records, The Beatles’ compilation album “The Early Beatles”. All of the tracks of this compilation were released by Vee-Jay Records in the beginning of 1964 on the “Introducing the Beatles” album. In October 1964, Vee-Jay's license to distribute the Beatles recordings they possessed expired, therefore giving Capitol the distribution rights for the tracks on the album. When creating the cover design, Capitol used the photo previously featured on the back cover of the British “Beatles For Sale” album. The cover of this amazing copy doesn’t have the RIAA number on the back and thus, there is no way to identify the pressing plant where it was manufactured at. Based on my experience, I can assume that this copy is either a Los Angeles pressing or the contract pressing. It’s impossible to find this album in a such condition with the guarantee of it being the 1st Monophonic pressing because the Capitol’s olive green inner sleeve can be seen at the cover’s mouth through the fully intact shrink wrap. The factory shrink wrap of this 1st print copy contains the original Capitol’s breathe holes. It’s guaranteed that you’ll find inside the 1st print black multicolored band Capitol label with the T-2309 catalog number and without the “Subsidiary of…” rim text. It’s extremely hard to find a factory sealed copy of this album.

  

The album is in stunning Mint Minus condition. The only flaw of this copy would be a light crease present only in the lower left-hand corner of the front cover.
