Description

** We have recently acquired a nice collection of Beatles albums and singles, all originally purchased by the same person when the records were released.  Please feel free to check our other Beatles auctions, there are some nice early pressings and Fan Club Christmas singles as well.  We always combine shipping costs! **

The sixth photograph on this auction shows all eight Beatles albums that we are currently auctioning, this is to give you an idea of the condition of the sleeve spines, which are generally excellent.  This auction if for just one of those albums:

 

Artist :  THE BEATLES

LP Title :  Beatles For Sale

Label :  Parlophone / PMC 1240 / 1964 / MONO

Matrix Numbers :  XEX 503-4N [stamper 2 5 , HP] / XEX 504-3N [stamper 1 , HL]

Notes :  Early 1st Mono Pressing, with 'The Parlophone Co.' text around label rims, 'Recording First Published 1964' text and 'Sold In UK...' text across label centres, and 'K T' tax code embossed on the side-2 label, front and back laminated gatefold sleeve with flipbacks visible inside and a spine with tapered ends, small outline 'Mono' text on front, lined Emitex inner sleeve.

Condition :  The vinyl is EX with a couple of light hairline marks visible, I am playing through the entire record now and it plays more like NM with a lovely clear undistorted warmth of sound.  We are playing the record now and it really is a stunning listen!  With only the smallest evidence of any low-level noise in the silence between songs.  We've sat and listened to the entire album - there are no faults, no clicks, no pops.

The labels show are clean with only minor signs of any wear and spindle marking to the centres.  The Emitex inner sleeve shows some light creasing and wear from use.

The outer sleeve has a little corner rubbing/wear and a few spots of edge wear to the gatefold, there are a few small laminate lines on the spine side and the tapered spine, the text of which is the spine is completely unworn.  and bottom edges and some visible wear and slight chipping down the opening edge.  The inner matt surface of the gatefold shows a little faded around the outside edges.

A very nice example of this classic Beatles album.

 

Unless otherwise noted above, vinyl grading is visual only - please ask if you require any further information or extra photographs.
