THE BEATLES"PLEASE PLEASE ME".1963 PARLOPHONE MONO WITH 33 1/3 ON JUST ONE LABEL

	£		113
	$		150

ATTENTION THE BEATLES COLLECTORS! 

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL ISSUE OF THE BEATLES"PLEASE PLEASE ME" LP WITH A VERY RARE LABEL VARIANT THAT I CANNOT FIND A PREVOUS EXAMPLE OF ANYWHERE ON THE NET!

THIS ONE HAS THE TINY 33 1/3 ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL BUT NOT THE SIDE 1 LABEL MAKING THIS ONE OF THE LAST TRANSITION COPIES EVER MADE IN THE SUMMER OF 1963.

INITIALLY THE TINY 33 1/3 WAS ON BOTH LABELS OF THE EARLIEST YELLOW AND BLACK LABELS AND OF COURSE ON THE BLACK AND GOLD DESIGNS. THE 33 1/3 TINY PRINT WAS REALISED TO BE NOT REQUIRED AS THE MUCH LARGER 33 1/3 FONT WAS NEAR TO THE PARLOPHONE LOGOS.

IT IS LIKELY THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE VERY FINAL PRINT RUN WITH THE LAST OF THE TINY 33 1/3 PRINTING AND NATURALLY AT THE END IT WAS UNLIKELY THERE WOULD BE EXACTLY THE SAME NUMBER OF THE OLDER LABELS LEFT TO BE USED UP! HOWEVER THE CHANCES OF THAT MANY HAVING JUST ONE 33 1/3 TINY CREDIT LABEL ONLY ARE VERY UNLIKELY TO BE MORE THAN A FEW DOZEN OF EVEN LESS! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!

ON THIS OCCASION IT IS ALL ABOUT THE LABELS BUT PLEASE BE AWARE THE RECORD  ITSELF HAS HAD A LOT OF PLAYS WITH DISTORTION AND SEVERAL JUMPS/SKIPS ON THE FIRST TRACK AS WELL AS ONE ON "MISERY". DESPITE THAT IT PLAYS THROUGH AND WITH SOME ADJUSTMENTS OF THE TONE CONTROLS OR IDEALLY A MONO SWITCH,IT WILL SOUND OK BUT DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE ONLY BUYING FOR A LISTENING COPY!

THIS IS A MEGA-RARE LABEL ALTERNATIVE SITUATION MAINLY FOR COLLECTORS OF THE ALBUM,THE BEATLES AND LABEL VARIATIONS!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL UK PARLOPHONE MONO YELLOW/BLACK LABELS EDITION.

1963 EMI PRESSED PARLOPHONE PMC 1202 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1N/1N MATRIXES AND NO "SOLD IN THE UK ETC" PRINT + THE RAISED M T TAX PRINT ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL UNLIKE REPRESSES THAT FOLLOWED.

HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL EMITEX INNER SLEEVE  WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE:"PATENTS APPLIED FOR" TEXT AND THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH THE EARLIEST "PHOTO ANGUS McBEAN" CREDIT IN THE FAR RIGHT CORNER THAT WAS MOVED FURTHER LEFT ON THE NEXT COVER DESIGN.

PLEASE SEE ALL OF THE PHOTOS.

BECAUSE OF THE JUMPS AND DISTORTION THE DISC IS STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS FAIR+++++ CONDITION BUT MUCH OF THE DISC IS NEARER TO GOOD/GOOD++++.

THE COVER HAS HAD A BLACK TAPE REPAIR TO THE BOTTOM FLIPBACK,SOME CREASES AND SOME STAINING BUT NO WRITING. THERE ARE EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS!

  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £10 STARTING PRICE. EUROPE I AIR MAIL £15  REST OF THE WORLD INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR £25.

I AM NO LONGER POSTING TO ITALY DUE TO ITEMS GOING "MISSING" DESPITE BEING SENT SIGNED FOR.THERE APPEAR TO BE MANY THEIVES IN THE ITALIAN POSTAL SERVICE!

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
