THE BEATLES
BEATLES BOX FROM LIVERPOOL **RARE MISPRINT**
8 VINYL LP BOX SET RELEASED IN 1980 BY PARLOPHONE.
THIS EXAMPLE HAS A RARE MISPRINTED SLEEVE PHOTO ON LP NUMBER 2. IN THE PHOTO PAUL McCARTNEY CAN BE SEEN WRONGLY PLAYING HIS BASS RIGHT HANDED, WHILE IT IS JOHN LENNON WHO IS SHOWN PLAYING LEFT HANDED. A SMALL NUMBER OF THESE SLEEVES WERE RELEASED UNTIL PARLOPHONE REALISED THE ERROR AND RECALLED THEM. THE ERROR WAS RECTIFIED AND THE PHOTO REVERSED, WITH ALL SUBSEQUENT ISSUES PRINTED THE RIGHT WAY ROUND. 'THE BEATLES BOX' IS A FAIRLY RARE AND SOUGHT AFTER SET, HOWEVER THIS MISPRINTED VERSION IS EXTREMELY RARE, IN FACT I HAVE ONLY SEEN ONE OTHER (THOUGH THERE WILL UNDOUBTEDLY BE OTHERS OUT THERE.)
THE EIGHT VINYL RECORDS AND SLEEVES ARE NEARLY ALL IN NEAR MINT CONDITION, AND APPEAR UNMARKED AND GOOD AS NEW. SIDE 2 OF DISC 8 HAS A SMALL, LIGHT INAUDABLE MARK ON ONE TRACK.  
THE BOX HAS A LITTLE WEAR AND A SMALL TAPE REPAIR TO ONE CORNER (SEE PICS) BUT IS OTHERWISE A NICE SOLID EXAMPLE. THE SLEEVES ARE AS GOOD AS NEW, EXCEPT MOST HAVE A SMALL TOP RIGHT CORNER DINK (SEE PICS).
THIS IS A BEATLES RARITY I AM RELUCTANT TO LET GO, BUT I NEED THE SPACE AND BOX SETS TAKE UP TOO MUCH ROOM ON MY SHELVES.
THE PRICE REFLECTS ITS RARITY, BUT IS STILL A BARGAIN IN MY OPINION.
THANKS FOR LOOKING.


POSTAGE: I always combine postage for purchase of more than one item. I also post at cost. For UK buyers I use tracked 48 with the Royal Mail (so if you require shipping updates please message me your email). Once packaging costs have been added in (as well as the fact that ebay take a slice of the shipping payment) then I just about break even.
OVERSEAS BIDDERS: Please note for overseas shipping I use ebay's Global Shipping Program, so I am not in control of their charges. I only receive the UK postage fee, which I am happy to combine for multiple purchases.
PACKAGING: Whether it's a £2 record or a £200 record I always pack with the same care. All records will be shipped in a plastic sleeve, with the vinyl removed from the record sleeve (and also the inner if it's a picture/lyric inner), and will be sent in proper record mailers with appropriate stiffeners.
(Please note I am not a dealer, these records are from my own extensive collection which I am scaling down due to lack of space. I will endeavour to describe condition etc. to the best of my ability, but if you have any questions please ask)
