Description
Beatles - "With The Beatles" original and first release, mono, UK 1963 reel to reel tape in complete and excellent plus condition. Released at the same time as the original vinyl album in 1963 - and much rarer.
Tested on my Sharp RD 708 and plays perfectly. All complete with packing slip, Emitape leaflet, Emitape central spool stickers both sides, and the small green Parlophone sticker to the 4 inch reel . Pink "star" tax code mark to the rear lid. Nothing is missing ! Even the white leader tape sticker is there to hold the otherwise loose tape in place ! White printed leader tape to Part 1 and red printed to side 2.
The lid and base are in complete, solid and clean condition with NO split corners, no writing, scuffs or tears, as is the card inlay. NO cracks to the tape spool. Superb !
I hesitate to say it but I do not think you will find better. The whole package is complete and in superb condition. You will not be disappointed.
For those interested in reel to reel tapes, you can play this twin track gem on either a twin track or a four track machine. Some would say the characteristic Beatles recordings of the time in mono sound sounds better and I would agree.
Slightly rarer than the rest of the original mono tapes.
