Description
***Please note that I only post within the UK***
This is a rarer late 60s pressing (circa 1967 to 69) of The Beatles "Help" single, with the solid centre variant, no tax codes (such as K T) on either side but still with the Sold in UK wording, so this dates from mid-1969 at the latest.
Condition:
First of all, the record appears to have very slight 'dishing' and a tiny bit of a warp (see video), but neither seem to affect play.
There are marks on the A-side label from sticker residue/removal, which have been filled in with either black marker or felt-tip but this hopefully doesn't distract too much from the overall look of the label. The b-side label looks clean. Only the lightest of spindle wear is visible on either side.
The playing surface looks pretty clean overall but has the odd few light marks but nothing major, and both sides play with some slight surface noise here and there but still an enjoyable listen with no sticking or jumping. The record may benefit from a deep clean but I'll leave that to the buyer and their preferred methods of doing that.
Further pressing identifiers are visible in the photos.
Reluctant sale but I'm thinning out my collection and I've already got two other pressings of this single so can't really justify keeping a third!
