Description
The Beatles
No. 1
GEP 8883
***WITH 1/G MOTHER & STAMPER FOR SIDE 2***
Have a listen to side 1:
First released in 1963, this was The Beatles' second official release. The EP was released on the 9th of November 1963 and reached it's highest position of number 2, staying in the charts for 29 weeks.
Funnily enough, it didn't reach the number 1 slot as 'The Beatles Hits' ep was there!
Credits for side 1 read: "McCartney-Lennon"
Catalogue Number: GEP 8883
(LARGE FORMAT)
Matrix numbers:
Side 1: 7TCE 764-1N
Side 2: 7TCE 765-1N
Mothers/Stampers:
Side 1: 2/GJR (The 'J' was usually reserved for DEMO copies!)
Side 2: 1/G.....WOW-ONE OF THE VERY 1ST OFF THE PRESS! You cannot get any earlier!!

VG+. Lovely copy...Only a light marks as. RAW sound reproduction. Glorious glossy sheen...LOVELY!
There appears to be a very slight edge warp-not affecting playback as it's only very gentle.
Would benefit from a professional clean.
Including some finger prints and some dust.
Sleeve: EX-. Nice ORIGINAL cover.
Lovely white backing and perfectly intact flipbacks.
IT HAS THE 1st PRINT ROUNDED CORNERS TO THE FLIPBACK.
All I can fault it with are two small tears to the back and a tiny nick to the front, at the opening-nothing at all to worry about!
Barely any spidering to the front laminate!
Please see the detailed images provided.
Labels: EX+. Very nice original first press, with:
"The Parlophone Co.Ltd" Rim text.
"Recording First Published 1963."
NO "sold in uk" central statement.
NO hole wear and only a few very light spindle marks.
NO tax codes on the labels.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES PROVIDED-CLICK ON THEM FOR EVEN LARGER IMAGES AND SEE MY FEEDBACK FOR FAIR GRADING AND HAPPY CUSTOMERS
All in all I would grab this beauty for it's very 1st pressing-you cannoit get any earlier! Great audio too and superb cover!
