Description

THE BEATLES - 'BEATLES FOR SALE'

UK 1965 1st PRESS EP


This difficult to find 4-track EP is a 1965 UK 1st pressing on the yellow & black Parlophone label: GEP 8931

Both labels bear the 'Sold in UK..' text with 'The Parlophone Co. Ltd..' worded rims.

The 'KT' purchase tax code is visible in the centre of the side 1 label.


Housed in a front laminated, rounded bi-flipback 'Garrod' printed picture cover.


Matrix numbers: 7TCE 860-1N & 7TCE 861-1N

Stamper codes: 1/A & 1/R


CONDITION

Labels: MINT

Perfect - a completely unblemished pair with no spindle marks or wear to either centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Both playing surfaces are clean & bright with just a handful of light hairlines in strong daylight but no significant marks or wear. Close examination directly beneath halogen light reveals a few stylus hairlines but again, nothing major.

Play: EXCELLENT

A very clean & warm sounding EP and my careful play-check at volume found no evidence of any groove/play wear to any track. In fact, aside from a touch of light background between tracks, there is little else to fault overall.

Cover

EXCELLENT

A bright & clean example which apart from a touch of light handling & storagewear displays no significant wear or blemishes anywhere.


**PLEASE NOTE: This item is located and will be shipped from AUSTRIA. 1st class international postage to UK addresses will be 5.00 GBP**
