Original very early US Mono pressing factory sealed copy of The Beatles “Meet The Beatles” released on January 20, 1964. This is one of the rare copies which has a distributor baggy placed above the factory sealed shrink wrap. Factory sealed protective baggy which could be opened using a perforation along the bottom edge. 1st print cover without the “Produced by George Martin” credit contains the “T-2047” catalog number and RIAA 3 Scranton, PA pressing plant identifier on the back. Without any doubts this copy contains the Capitol Records black multi-color band labels without the “Subsidiary of…” rim text. It’s impossible to identify which label variation this copy has, but it’s at least the 2nd pressing whose release occurred in the beginning of February, 1964 because using a strong light source you could slightly see a blue inner sleeve inside through the fully intact shrink wrap and baggy at the cover’s mouth. The listing includes a very rare LIFE Magazine “The Beatles They’re Here Again and What a Ruckus” August 28, 1964 Special 35¢ Issue. This is indeed a very rare issue that’s different from the 25¢ one having an extra “Ringo Starr” cover tab.

★

The factory sealed album is in stunning Mint condition. The LIFE magazine is in great vintage condition only having some light shelf wear.
