📀 THE BEATLES – WITH THE BEATLES (UK MONO 1963 TRUE FIRST PRESS) – PMC 1206 – 1N / 1N – EARLIEST LABEL
Up for sale is an authentic 1963 UK first pressing of With The Beatles, Parlophone PMC 1206, featuring the earliest lacquer cuts: XEX 447-1N / XEX 448-1N
These are the first mastering cuts, used only during the very first release run in late 1963.
This copy has the correct original 1963 label, confirmed by the key first-press identifiers visible in the photos:
✅ Yellow/Black Parlophone label with “The Parlophone Co. Ltd.” rim text
Used ONLY on 1963 first pressings.
✅ “Recording First Published 1963”
A first-year indicator found only on authentic 1963 issues.
✅ BIEM/NCB publishing credits
Correct for the earliest mono labels.
✅ Made in Gt. Britain + 1963 layout & typography
Exact spacing and font alignment specific to the debut pressing run.
This combination of 1N/1N matrices + 1963 rim text + 1963 publishing text verifies without question that this is a genuine first pressing, not a reissue or later mono cut.

Vinyl: VG/VG+
