Description
THE BEATLES "PLEASE PLEASE ME"
VERY FIRST UK 1st Yellow / Black - STEREO PRESS with small " Gold Label" 33/3 .
CONSIDERED AN ESSENTIAL ADDITION TO ANY BEATLES COLLECTION, AND IS WITHOUT DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE AND SOUGHT AFTER OF ALL THE BEATLES VINYL.
WITH ONLY AN EXTREMELY LIMITED NUMBER OF COPIES REPUTED TO HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AND IN ALL MY YEARS OF COLLECTING (AND HOARDING) I'VE ONLY COME ACROSS TWO, THESE ELUSIVE ALBUMS RARELY SURFACE FOR SALE AND THEREFORE DEMAND FOR ANY COPY IS HIGH. MANY CONSIDER THIS VERSION TO BE AS RARE OR EVEN RARER THAN THE BLACK AND GOLD STEREO.
QUESTION: HOW MANY GOLD STEREO PARLOPHONES DO YOU SEE ON EBAY? , NOW HOW MANY HAVE YOU SEEN OF THESE?
PLEASE SEE: http://www.beatlescollecting.co.uk/labelstereoppm.html
PCS 3042
YEX 94/95-1-1
STAMPERS: 1 P ON SIDE ONE & 1 G ON SIDE 2
THIS MEANS OR HAS BEEN STATED MANY TIMES, THAT IT IS ONE OF THE FIRST 300 PRESSED WHICH IS USUALLY RESERVED FOR GOLD LABEL PRESSINGS?!!?
NO PURCHASE TAX CODE STAMP (SAME AS MY OTHER ONE). IN FACT IT SEEMS ALL THESE FIRST YELLOW / BLACK PARLOPHONE PRESSINGS WITH THE EXTRA GOLD 33 1/3 NEVER CAME WITH A TAX CODE STAMPED ON THE LABEL.
THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS WHICH FEATURE THE SMALL 33/3 ARE IN SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS NO SPINDLE MARKS TO EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH PERFECT LETTERING. BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB... THIS LOOKS LIKE IT HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED, EXCEPT FOR A VERY VERY FEIGNT NEEDLE MARK ON SIDE TWO. I HAVE TRIED TO GET A CLOSE PHOTO OF THIS BUT IT JUST ABOUT SHOWS UP ON ONE OF THE PHOTOS! THERE ARE NO AUDIO IMPERFECTIONS WHATSOEVER. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING
AUDIO IS STUNNING.... ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF REVEALED A CLEAR AND CRISP PERFORMANCE. AS NEW, THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITH ANY CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS. THE STEREO AUDIO IS STRONG AND VIBRANT AND WAS A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.
THE CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS IN AN EXCELLENT SUPERB CONDITION WITH THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR WORDING".
THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY SLEEVE IS A VERY RARE FIRST ISSUE GOLD SLEEVE WITH THE LARGE STEREO AND ANGUS MCBEAN CREDIT TO THE EXTREME RIGHT. AGAIN IN LOVELY CONDITION WITH JUST A BRUISE OR TWO TO THE CORNERS. VERY CLEAN AND VERY WHITE. NO WRITING ANYWHERE. WOULD BENEFIT FROM A PROFESSIONAL CLEAN ALONG THE FLIPBACKS. JUST ONE MARK SHOWN IN LAST PICTURE.
NOT MANY BIG COLLECTORS HAVE THESE AND THIS IS MY LAST STEREO ONE ( I HAD TWO).
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUM OF ALL TIME.
PRICED ACCORDINGLY BUT ALL OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED SERIOUSLY..
Can collect and pay cash if preferred / internet banking, Postage will be more than £4 if insurance needed etc, please ask for quote for overseas
