Description
The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (UK Mono Vinyl LP 3N/3N Matrices)
Early UK Mono Pressing. No tax code embossed on the labels. 3N/3N matrix numbers.
The Vinyl is in Very Good condition. Glossy vinyl and great audio. Some surface marks but plays as excellent with just the occasional light crackle in some of the quieter passages of music. There is a light, thin scratch on Side 2 across tracks 1 to 4 but this does not produce any clicks during playback.
The front laminated flipback sleeve is in Very Good condition. There is a scuff on the centre of the spine which obscures the "t" in "Night" and "The" which follows. A few light scuffs on the edges and some yellowing near the sleeve opening on the back cover.
The labels are clean and unmarked.
The vinyl is in a plain white inner sleeve.
Released by Parlohone Cat: PMC 1230 Matrix numbers: XEX 481 3N/ XEX 482-3N
Mother stampers: Side 1: GTL @ 3 o'clock
Side 2: GT(A?) @ 3 o'clock
POSTED WITHIN 24 HOURS FROM THE U.K.
ALL THE ALBUMS I SELL ARE VERY SECURELY PACKAGED WITH AT LEAST TWO STIFFENERS AND NEW PLASTIC SLEEVES. I ALWAYS PLACE THE RECORD OUTSIDE THE OUTER SLEEVE TO ENSURE THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE SLEEVE IN TRANSIT. I ONLY USE THE HIGHEST GRADE PACKAGING TO ENSURE THE RECORDS ARRIVE IN THE CONDITION I STATE IN MY LISTINGS.
Grading
I grade all my records using the Record Collector's Grading System which is as follows:
Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent - The record shows signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits discoloration etc.
Fair - The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/ or defaced.
Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
