Description
PLEASE READ FIRST!
I'm having to make this even clearer as people are still buying records I'm grading low and as a 'collection filler', and then complain about the audio quality when they try to play them. As I do not own a record player I VISUALLY GRADE my records, so I cannotguarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
A Hard Day's Night
Rare 1969 Stereo Press that Omits 'Sold in UK' Statement
On offer here is a copy of the Beatles LP A Hard Day's Night on the yellow / black Parlophone label. This variation omits the Sold in UK statement which dates it to 1969 when the statement was no longer required on labels, but just before Parlophone changed their label design from the yellow black style to the more modern silver / black style.
By this time everyone was out buying Abbey Road. The early albums barely sold and, in most cases, were special order only. Today it is very hard to find these 1969 copies due to how low the sales were and because they were only ever available for a short while.
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

Inner Sleeve Condition - Inserts Condition - Disc Condition(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in VG condition. The disc is looking pretty decent.

Both labels are clean with no stickers, writing or damage. here's just some light, general wear and a touch of whitening around the centrehole as you can see in the photos below.

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.price rating
