Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
Beatles For Sale
Impossibly Rare 1969 Stereo Press with 'Losser' AND 'Ssongs' Label Errors!
This is an exceptionally rare opportunity to add this gem to your Beatles collection! On offer here is a 1968 stereo copy of the Beatles LP 'Beatles For Sale'. This is the impossible to find error pressing that features both the 'Losser' and 'Ssongs' label errors!
Such errors are so, so hard to find. They're usually caught immediately by quality control. In this instance the label was made up with both errors - the Ssongs error was corrected near-immediately after it was put into use but the 'Losser' error lasted a bit longer but it too was discovered and immediately corrected.
In the many years that Popsike has been running, only 1 copy has ever been catalogued that features both the Losser and Ssongs error, and that was back in 2014. That should give you an idea as to how difficult it is to find these!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

My Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
