On offer here is a SERIOUSLY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called "Help!" and is an ORIGINAL 1965 UK MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Yellow & Black Parlophone label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONDITION - AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE LIKE THIS!!!!  THE RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL AND IS IN AMAZING CONDITION, THE INNER SLEEVE IS SIMPLY INCREDIBLE, AND THE COVER IS SIMPLY AWESOME AND FOR ONCE IS PURE WHITE!!!!  AND THIS IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE ON THIS LP!!!!   WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN 1965 - EVERY SINGLE COVER WAS 1ST PRESSED IN A PURE BRILLIANT WHITE COLOUR.  HOWEVER OVER THE YEARS VIRTUALLY EVERY 1ST PRESSING HAS YELLOWED (AND OFTEN BROWNED!) TO LOOK A SHADOW OF THEIR FORMER GLORY.  BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!   JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK OF THIS COVER IS EXACTLY THE SAME PURE BRILLIANT WHITE COLOUR IT WAS FIRST PRESSED WITH BACK IN 1965!!!!  AND THIS OF COURSE DISPELLS THE LAUGHABLE MYTH (THAT SOME SEEK TO PORTRAY) THAT THIS LP WAS ORIGINALLY PRESSED IN A 'CREAM' COLOUR (MOST PEOPLE WILL OF COURSE KNOW THAT THIS IS COMPLETELY UNTRUE ALREADY).  IF A 1ST PRESSING OF HELP! IS 'CREAM' IN COLOUR - IT MEANS IT HAS LOST ITS ORIGINAL COLOUR AND HAS YELLOWED SLIGHTLY.  AND THIS IS WHAT MAKES THIS AMAZING 1ST PRESSING SO INCREDIBLY RARE - BECAUSE EVERY PART IS A PURE BRILLIANT WHITE - AND BELIEVE ME THIS LP IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS!!!!
