THE BEATLES
PLEASE PLEASE ME
ORIGINAL 1963 PRESSING IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION
1N/ 1N MATRICES
Sleeve: A Very Good Plus condition. Has retained its original glossy finish, coloration and contrast... Corners edges a little storage wear but not bad, small split top right corner. Fully intact spine and is structurally sound; no tears, rips, or repairs, and no major blemishes, no ring-wear, or indentations. Lies completely flat and still well adhered and clean. Just a couple of feint creases on front panel but retains high gloss. Rear panel is very clean but has a name written. Garrod and Lofthouse sleeve which came in towards the end of the of the pressing run for these original 5th pressings.
The Vinyl: A strong Excellent Plus condition.. Has retained a jet-black glossy pressing sheen all over both surfaces and looks to have been barely ever played. There are no warps, no scuffs, no needle drops, no groove wear, no scratches, and nothing I’d call an actual hairline mark and it appears to have been barely ever played and almost as good as new new. The surfaces are clean and have retained their original lustre and project a strong mirror-like shine. Inspected closely with the disc held angled I can only see at most five or six wispy lines mostly small with one or two longer. The condition of the disc would easily be one of the better ones to ever be found.
Inner Sleeve: Original inner sleeve in Very Good Plus Condition with no splits or discolouration, and neat opening edge
The Labels: Excellent condition, the yellow font is bright and unfaded. There are only a few small spindle lines.
The Audio: There are no audible detractions, no discernible deviation from the original audio quality. It plays as well as likely to be possible, very clear and lucid with only the occasional static type sound tic which are only audible in a few of the linking grooves between tracks due to age of the record. Lucid instrumental detail with perfect mono bass deep bass and loud and punchy vocals. No jumps, no pops, no clicks, no skips, no background noise, no sticks etc. Comparable to new record quality.
This particular copy has very late mothers and stampers 112 RPG and 8 RRH and would have been one of the last of the first ever matrix pressings.
