Description

The first UK, EMI cassette release of "With The Beatles" in October 1970. Yellow paper labels with the "monoaural" text and with the black box Parlophone/EMI logo missing from the label indicating an early copy.

The simple "white inlay" (as the first release is known) has the circular 1 & 7/8th ips notation at the top of the spine, and the advertising of other Beatles cassettes released at the same time on the foldover. This first release design was replaced by the "all gold" inlay design of the REissues in January 1972, when the market for cassettes really took off. Note the picture of the original vinyl album extending to the very bottom of the inlay and the catalogue number at the very top, and on the spine - quite unlike the reissues that followed.

In excellent condition - all components. Clean and crisp inlay, and the paper labels undamaged, untorn and with no writing, stains etc. Minor raising to the labels. Original Norelco case in lovely condition.

Played and tested. A rare item in excellent condition.

Posting in the UK and Worldwide.
