Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
GEORGE MARTIN
Off The Beatle Track
Mega Rare UK 69-71 Press with Silver / Black Parlophone Labels!
On offer here is an exceptionally rare copy of the George Martin LP 'Off The Beatle Track'.
Even at the time of release, and at the height of Beatlemania, this album did not sell well at all. Even so, nearly every single copy that does come up for sale today is the original 1964 pressing. The later presses are nearly impossible to get ahold of today as, by the time this pressing came out around the turn of the decade, it had become a special order record only and there was even less interest in the album then than there was back when it was first released.
A very rare opportunity to pick up a great condition copy of this very hard to find record!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.
Title George Martin - Off The Beatle Track Year of Release 1969-1971 Catalogue Number PCS 3057 Label Silver / Black Parlophone with one EMI logo Tax Code on Disc - Sleeve Manufacturer Garrod and Lofthouse Side 1 Matrix Number YEX 124-1 Side 2 Matrix Number YEX 125-1 Side 1 Stampers 1 / P Side 2 Stampers 1 / GR Sleeve Condition The sleeve is in EX condition. The sleeve is holding up perfect with very little wear and tear. The front is wonderfully clean with a clear, thick laminate. Seams are holding perfectly. Spine has a small crease in it but otherwise is looking great with pinched edges. Back has browned just a little but is otherwise clean. Numbers have been written in very light pencil next to each track. Inner Sleeve Condition The inner sleeve is in EX+ condition. It's holding up really nicely with no tears or anything. Just a few light creases and a little, light browing at the edges. Inserts Condition - Disc Condition(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in NM+ condition. The disc has a mirrorlike shine and looks like it's pretty much never been played! At most all I can see are the very fainted of little scuffs but they're nearly invisible. Top condition! Label Condition The labels are in NM+ condition. The labels are pristine with just one very light, solitary spindlemarks on each side. It looks like this disc has ever been played a handful of time, if that.
All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.
Records are posted out tracked and insured (where applicable) to comply with eBay and PayPal seller protection policy.
The P+P costs given on each auction are for that auction only. If you win more than one auction please wait until I've
sent you out an amended invoice to combine postage.
All LPs will be mailed out in a strong, corrugated cardboard LP mailing box with the LP outside the sleeve and extra
sheets of corrugated cardboard will be used where applicable.
My Regarding Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
