30

Last month I began putting up for auction MANY BEATLES PICTURE SLEEVES & MATCHING 45 RPM RECORDS from my OWN VINYL COLLECTION. Here is ROUND 2!!! So if you missed out on some picture sleeves last month, here’s another opportunity. If you want to begin a collection of Beatles Singles Picture Sleeves or are seeking to upgrade certain picture sleeves, please check out my other current auctions and upcoming auctions for items you may want.

In this auction are 1 Beatles Picture Sleeve and 1 Beatles original Capitol orange-yellow swirl label 45 RPM record.   

Here are the details about the picture sleeve and record in this auction:

·       “MATCHBOX” b/w “SLOW DOWN” by The Beatles 

·       This is Capitol Records 5255.

·       This record was issued August 24, 1964. 

·       The PICTURE SLEEVE is in VG CONDITION. There is some disk impression, just a hint of ring wear, two small tears in the 2 top corners of the “Slow Down/ Match Box” side. There are thumbtack/push-pin holes in each corner. It is not a flat sleeve. There are small ripples and slight folds and very slight creases. There is a small stain at the bottom of one side. There are NO seam splits. Despite my description of the flaws, the images on both sides are Not Bad!! (Check out the images!)    

·       This is a Straight-cut EAST COAST SLEEVE.

·       The VINYL is VG.  

·       This has become a HARD-TO-FIND and DESIREABLE BEATLES PICTURE SLEEVE!
