Description
..THE BEATLES "PLEASE PLEASE ME"
VERY FIRST UK 1st Yellow / Black Press
DEFINITELY THE MOST ESSENTIAL ADDITION TO ANY BEATLES COLLECTION., AND IS WITHOUT DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE AND SOUGHT AFTER OF ALL THE BEATLES VINYL.
WITH ONLY AN EXTREMELY LIMITED NUMBER OF COPIES REPUTED TO HAVE BEEN PRODUCED BEFORE THE NEXT LABEL CHANGE TO WHICH INCLUDES THE "REC FIRST PUB." LINE, THESE ELUSIVE ALBUMS RARELY SURFACE FOR SALE AND THEREFORE DEMAND FOR ANY COPY IS HIGH. MANY CONSIDER THIS VERSION TO BE AS RARE OR EVEN RARER THAN THE BLACK AND GOLD MONO.
THE QUESTION HAS TO BE ASKED..: HOW MANY GOLD MONO PARLOPHONES DO YOU SEE ON EBAY? , NOW HOW MANY HAVE YOU SEEN OF THESE?
PMC 1202
XEX 94/95-1-1
STAMPERS: 1 RM ON SIDE ONE & 1 RA ON SIDE 2
VERY EARLY PRESS
NO PURCHASE TAX CODE STAMP (SAME AS MY OTHER ONE). IN FACT IT SEEMS ALL THESE FIRST YELLOW / BLACK PARLOPHONE PRESSINGS NEVER CAME WITH A TAX CODE STAMPED ON THE LABEL.
THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS ARE IN SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS A FEW SPINDLE MARKS TO EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH PERFECT LETTERING. BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB... THIS LOOKS LIKE IT HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED MUCH, EXCEPT FOR A VERY FEW PAPER LINES / MARKS. THERE ARE NO AUDIO IMPERFECTIONS WHATSOEVER. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING
AUDIO IS STUNNING.... ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF REVEALED A CLEAR AND CRISP PERFORMANCE. AS NEW, THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITH ANY CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS. THE STEREO AUDIO IS STRONG AND VIBRANT AND WAS A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.
THE CORRECT EARLY EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS IN AN EXCELLENT SUPERB CONDITION WITH THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR WORDING".
THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY SLEEVE IS A RARE FIRST ISSUE YELLOW AND BLACK SLEEVE WITH THE LARGE MONO TO THE RIGHT AND ANGUS MCBEAN CREDIT TO THE RIGHT. THE FRONT HAS A COUPLE OF ISSUES THOUGH THE CORNERS ARE GOOD, AND THE BACK IS PRETTY CLEAN AND 99% INTACT WITH A COUPLE OF THE LOWER FOLD OVERS NEEDED REGLUEING ETC. CONDITION I WOULD PLACE AROUND THE 7/8 OUT OF 10 DUE TO THIS. VERY NICE OTHERWISE. PLEASE SEE PICTURES.
A BETTER SLEEVE WOULD BE NICE TO MATCH THE VINYL.
NOT MANY BIG COLLECTORS HAVE THESE.
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUM OF ALL TIME.
