ULTRA MEGA RARE MINT BEATLES SWAN S-4182-S BLACK & WHITE LABEL PROMO SIE LIEBT DICH PLUS NEAR MINT SWAN S-4152 PICTURE SLEEVE
SWAN catalog # S-4182-S & S-4182-I WHITE PROMO WITH 'X'
Of the three known PROMO versions of this recording, this is absolutely by far the RAREST version. It is doubtful that you will ever find the vinyl in nicer condition then this treasure, since PROMO copies normally took an absolute beating by disc jockeys prior to the label officially releasing the record.
It is important to note that in addition to the Swan Catalog Number, the words "VIRTUE STUDIO", as well as an upside down 'R' can be found in the trail off area of the vinyl giving collectors the knowledge and confidence that this is the authentic rarely seen Ultra Mega Rare Swan White Label Promotional Copy of 'She Loves You' recorded in German.
The 'A' side label reads PROMOTION COPY. The time of the recording is just below at 2:18. On the left side of the label are the words GIL MUSIC CORP, with BMI under that. Just above the checkered wave are the words DON'T DROP OUT. FACTORY PRINTED X occurs once on the left A side. The song title SIE LIEBT DICH is on one line and the English translation (She Loves You) is on the line just below. Thin printing style font. This particular super rare version was pressed in May 1964 by RCA.
The 'B' side label is I'LL GET YOU. On the upper left are the words DON'T DROP OUT. On the right side below the checkered wave are the words PROMOTION COPY and the time of 2:04. On the left side below the checkered wave are the words NORTHERN MUSIC LTD., ASCAP.
This PROMO was issued in May 1964. The Vinyl is Mint showing little to zero play, while retaining its original high glossy appearance (Amazingly rare for a PROMO copy). The Labels do show minor residue, however NO tears, NO rips and NO fading. Please refer to the photos for the label flaws. Overall this treasure is in excellent condition, especially for a PROMO that is now 55 years old. The value of this rare piece has increased dramatically over the past few years due to it's extreme scarcity. You can throw out all of the price guides on this one. It was once thought that the PROMO version of SHE LOVES YOU recorded in English (S-5152) was more scarce, however in the past year it has become very evident that there are far fewer GERMAN version Promo Copies to be found for sale anywhere across the globe !! Most of these have been locked away by collectors.
