Description

Hello there! Many thanks for perousing my items! When you've looked here, you might like to check out some of my other items, I have some other very rare Beatles etc. items currently listed with many more to come, heck, I'd even suggest you add me to your favourite sellers to keep on top of all the goodies that I'm going to list over the coming months!
I have collected records since I was very young, however Iincreasingly I have realised that I have far too many, and soI have been slowly trying to rationalise my extensive collection over the years, I have sold many major rarities over the years, from major BEATLES and 60s rarities, through PUNK and PROG ROCK, CLASSICAL and BLUES. Basically I've had alot of very rare records and in dribs and drabs have sold them off. I've never had negative feedback, and had many repeat customers. I will only post completely insured and tracked.
This week I'm selling most of the Beatles Christmas FanClub Flexi Discs in various conditions, but all sought after! Here we have the penultimate UK xmas flexi disc from 1968, this was the 6th one, and the first of the only two double sided ones (6th and 7th 1968/69). This is very hard to photograph in focus, as there is so little to focus on! So, sorry about the photos, but this is in really nice condition! There are only two handling indents, both only in the central area, and in no way coming close to the playing area (the little spot visible at about 2 o'clock on the first photo, is just a reflection, and is not a mark on the actual record), I have taken close ups of the central areas to show them clearer. This record never had labels, and instead the information was printed directly onto the black surface in white ink, sadly, most of this has rubbed off, which is more than common! But parts of the text are still lightly visible, as you can just about make out in my poor attempt at a second photo! There was never any text printed on the second side. In grading I'm going to refer to the "Record" as the playing surface, and "Labels" as the central area. All of the Beatles UK Fan Club Christmas Flexi Discs are highly sought after, but after the initial Beatlemania years they got much rarer, and this 1968 record is one of the rarest.

RECORD CONDITION: VG+/EX-, it has a few surface hairline marks, though nothing more than that, and absolutely nothing even remotely feelable.The audio is strong, and though these LYNTONE Flexi discs never produced as strong audio as a standard record, the audio on this hasn't deteriorated much since it was pressed
RECORD LABELS: VG, as is common with this and the following flexi disc in 1969, the text has rubbed off this copy, not etirely, you can still make parts of it out, but it's pretty illegible. Though this is quite common with this rare disc. As mentioned before there are two very light handling indents, though these do not come anywhere near the playing surface, and don't affect play in any way.
