There are three significant studies / discographies of the Beatles' records in the period 1962-1970. They are prepared and posted on the websites of yokono.co.uk, thebeatles-collection.com and beatlebay.co.uk. The study of beatlebay.co.uk is specifically on the mono and stereo editions of LP records "Please Please Me". The presented here for sale vinyl record Please Please Me is the first ever Beatles UK LP and, at the same time, largest Beatles issue (in the summer of 1963 - January 1964).
According beatlebay.co.uk and yokono.co.uk this LP is 5th press. According thebeatles-collection.com this issue is 4th press. the difference is due to the non-credit "Recording First Published 1963" edition (with and without a small suffix 33 1/3) as two separate editions: 3rd and 4ht.

CONDITIONS:
Sleeve: Excellent, a shine glossy, laminated fleepback sleeve with big “MONO” on front side. Excellent, fully readable spine in great  condition. Original press Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd. London PMC 1202 PCS 3042. The sleeve is holding up fine with no splits, writings or tears. Perfect example of this original, thick, healthy cardboard sleeve! (pls. see pics.)
Record: Excellent, perfectly clean and flat vinyl. I can define it as Excallent, near mint, if there were not a few light traces on the labels. Lovely deep gloss sheen, some very light surface faint scuffing, no any marks. There is very light scratch on side 2, which is not felt and does not affect auditioning. No jumps or stalls - a great sounding vinyl record. Looking really perfect, nice lafter storage for 55 years.! So hard to find original vinyl's record 1963' of this condition! Matrix numbers: Side One: XEX 421-1, Side Two: XEX 422-1.
Audio: Excellent, plays fine, deep with solid Mono sound. Plays through with no skips, jumps or sticks.  without any excessive surface noise, certainly a decent & very playable original UK copy. Here, there on side 2 has cople of very light surface hairlines and inner sleeve traces (does not affect play), does not ditract from the Great strong sound. This is fine and normal for vinyl records near 55 years old. Side one is perfect.
Inner sleeve: Excellent, clear, no tears, lettering or bends at all, Original Polythene made - lined "Use Emitex" die-cut sleeve type-2, with a  thinner paper material than type-1.
Labels: Excellent. Black and Yellow Parlophone Type-3 label with silver print: the name "THE PARLOPHONE CO. LTD.(capital letter)" on the outer rim, and the "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963" statement was added. The word "mono", on upper right of the front cover, is large. The labels are in Excellent condition. The labels are clean, the text is bright and full readable, there are no tears, stickers etc. Both labels have a couple light spindle wear.
