NOTES
  Up for auction another collector's pearl, namely a worldwide first press copy of the Beatles' 1966 album Revolver.
Both the U.K. and U.S. releases were published later (U.K., August 05, 1966, Y/B Parlophone, PMC 7009 -mono-, PCS 7009 -stereo- / U.S., August 08, 1966, Capitol Rainbow T 2576 -mono-, ST 2576 -stereo-, different track listing).

German Odeon came up with two different Cover- and label versions on the same day: One for domestic use, published under Odeon's popular HoerZu branch, a second one that wasn't publicily available on the German market but was geared towards the EXPORT market, first and foremost Switzerland.
The record you are bidding on belongs to the latter one.

Belonging to a very early pressing, record has a label error on Side B, where song #5 is cited I Want To Love You, instead of the "proper spelling" I Want To Tell You, George's third contribution to this record(!)
Has "URHEBER- UND ..." in the perimeter text, hence "type 2", cos Revolver is a 1966 release. "Type 1" ("ALLE RECHTE ...") discontinued with the German release of Rubber Soul in December 1965.

Thick, heavy vinyl, as often seen with export issues, plus the record's overall EX condition round the picture, and warm every true collector's heart!

Please see grading details for a more elaborate description of the record's condition.

IMPORTANT NOTE for GERMAN BIDDERS: Please constact us before bidding, for otherwise we will remove your bid without prior notice. This is in view of constantly recurring problems, often caused by language. It's NOT an offense. Collectors want harmony and consensus, not trouble.

1st Class Packaging

We are Collectors, hence every record is stored (and will be sent) in a sophisticated way. Many experienced collectors were thrilled by our unique, bullet-proof "packing technicque". Original cover, inner sleeve(s), prospective inserts, and/or whatever may come across, are stored separately. The vinyl sits in a neutral antistatic, padded inner sleeve, which is housed in a stable, neutral cardboard cover. Package is protected by one (or more) transparent plastic sleeves. Finally, all items are being wrapped with thick bubble foil and go to a professional record mailer, which is then being properly sealed with water-resistant tape.

For packaging, we use brand-new material & items only. Whatever eBay MIGHT display: INSURED, SIGNED-IN, TRACKED SHIPPING IS FREE. ANY DESTINATION ON THIS PLANET.
(PLEASE NOTE that pictured record is an EXAMPLE only. It is NOT the item up for auction. Thank you.)
