First pressing. NOVEMBER 22nd 1963 
This is a first pressing, with all of the characteristics of other first pressings, except this version has no tax code.

The main differentiator of this early pressing, compared to later versions, is the black & yellow Parlophone label with perimeter rim copyright text beginning, 'THE PARLOPHONE CO LTD...', and the text 'RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963' above the side indicator numeral.

There are a number of other differentiators present on both the labels and the cover.

Label:
1 - The title of B1 'Roll Over Beethoven' is indented so that the 'R' appears over the 'BI' in 'BIEM' below it. Other versions such as this one have the 'R' over the 'I'.
2 - The title of B3 is given as 'You Really Gotta [instead of: 'Got A'] Hold On Me'.
3 - The publishing credit for B7 'Money' is given as 'Jobete Mus. NCB'. Later pressings credit 'Dominion.Belinda (Ldn.) Ltd.'.
4 - The lack of a UK purchase tax code embossing on the label. A similar variant has a KT code.

Cover:
1 - Front laminated, tri-flipback and printed by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd., with a large 'MONO' indicator on the front, top, right hand corner. 
2 - The title of track B3 as 'You Really Gotta [instead of: 'Got A'] Hold On Me'.

CONDITION
VINYL
NEAR MINT, possibly played this 3-4 times since 1965, have other copies which I played instead. 
Beautiful glossy mirror like finish, really beautiful condition 
When play tested has absolutely  SUPERB SILENT AUDIO PLAYBACK !

I have played this through track for track at a loud volume on my top end REGA system,  the audio is awesome! 

Crystal clear and vibrant through out, with (no) distortion or any signs of groove wear at all  !!!! 

Certainly (no) clicks pops or jumps!!  As good as it gets in my opinion!! 

THIS AUDIO IS RATED AT THE VERY TOP ON ALL FREQUENCIES! 

AUDIO GRADED AS NEAR MINT!! 

UNBELIEVABLE FOR A VINYL THAT IS 58 YEARS OLD !!!!! 

SILENT ON RUN INS & BETWEEN TRACKS AND STUNNING CLARITY AT HIGH VOLUME ON MY TOP END REGA SYSTEM ! JUST LOVELY !!
SIMPLY AMAZING AND NEARLY 60 YEARS OLD !!
PLEASE SEE ALL PICS AND USE ZOOM 

OUTER LAMINATED FLIPBACK MONO SLEEVE
AN EXCELLENT ++ / NEAR MINT  grading for this original Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve is accurate. 
ITS A BEAUTY !! 

NO RIPS OR NASTY NAMES WRITTEN ON ETC 

GLOSSY AND RICH IN COLOUR  !!! Super FULLY LEGIBLE spine !!!

(see pictures and use zoom to self assess) 

The front of the sleeve is very clean and glossy still, the notoriously difficult to keep clean unlaminated rear is also superb, with a tiny amount of foxing only, all flip backs are un damaged and all text is clear and legible. SUPERB !!
The spine is unworn and text is clearly visible and legible, always kept in a dust cover and stored correctly. See pics Absolutely Lovely !!! 
SO RARE ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION, ITS A STUNNER !!!
CENTRE LABELS
Both sides are Near Mint with just a couple of spindle trails around the centre hole, further evidence of the very few plays in the last 55 years !!
ORIGINAL PATENTED INNER SLEEVE 
NEAR MINT LIKE NEW, CRISP, CLEAN AND WITH NO SPLITS. AMAZING !!
