PMC 7070
(another from my personal collection)

Roll up, roll up all ye Beatles fans....Ready to be re-released by Disney in the near future as a 3D remake, it's The Beatles' YELLOW SUBMARINE....
This was The Beatles' eleventh official album release and interestingly enough, the first album of theirs to included non-Beatles material. Released, after a delay, in mid January the album made it up the UK charts to the 3rd position....With The Beatles' 'White' album denying it the top slot.
There were only modest sales-in comparison with other Beatles releases-as the sales were around 800,000 within the first three months, but it did go over1 million sales by the end of the year. This could have had something to do with the album having only four original tracks and the rest was George Martin's film score.

So, here's the details of this album up for auction:

Catalogue number: PMC 7070

Matrix Numbers side 1: XEX 715-1
Matrix Numbers side 2: XEX 716-1
As you can see...It's the very first pressing...NOW LOOK AT THESE MOTHERS/STAMPERS:

Mothers/Stampers side 1: 1 GO
Mothers/Stampers side 2: 1 L
WOW.........VERY, VERY EARLY PRESSING INDEED!!!!


Vinyl:
131g
EX. There are just light hairline marks, that really is it!!
 I have just played her all the way through and found a simply superb deep and rich sound reproduction. Just minimal background noise and static evident between the songs. With some crackle more evident on the insrumental side 2....
 I think a gentle professional clean will upgrade this rare early press of a hard to find record even further!!!

Flat, heavy and all original glorious vinyl!


Lables: NEAR MINT! She has the all important statement "Sold in the U.K...." showing it is a first press as well as "Mfd. in U.K."...If you needed any more convincing other than those
 HUGELY EARLY MOTHERS/STAMPERS. Nice dark apple, rather than the later lighter ones.
Only a couple of incredibly light spindle marks, which are only visible when angled towards the light.


THIS VINYL REPRESENTS EXACTLY HOW THE BEATLES WANTED YOU TO  HEAR THIS ICONIC ALBUM.
Very displayable...Very playable ;-)
GORGEOUS


Cover: EX+. It is the original cover 1st printing cover-WITHOUT THE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE STATEMENT TO THE FLIPBACK.
 Has the two red lines above and below the text to the back. The back card is still white and in tip top shape.
The flipbacks are in superb condition, with the lovely rounded edges.
The cover is the early cream cover, rather than the next printing of more white and darker grey for the 'hill' on which The Beatles are standing.
Only very light knocks/rubbing to the corners.
WITHOUT ANY crescents of spidering to the laminate!!! A couple of tiny fingers of spidering eminating from the seam!
Excellently strong LEGIBLE spine.
Really is a dsiplay piece which I have looked after and loved over the years.


Please see the detailed photo's for yourselves and read my feedback for happy customers and fair gradings.


Inner: EX++/NMint. It is the original black die-cut inner with the window to one side.
In simply time-warp condition-Really is the best example I have ever come across!!!
No splts or tears, or even any significant creases for that matter!!!

All in all it is a VERY rare, VERY first  day pressing of a wonderful album. She is one heck of a rare beauty and an upgrade!!!
SAD TO SEE HER GO.....
