MEET THE BEATLES - MONO LP - ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING 1964 U.S.- T2047 - Nice!
Up for auction is this Original MONO copy of the "Meet the Beatles" Lp. This record was released in early 1964 at the height of Beatlemania nearly 50 years ago! It was the first Beatles record released on Capitol records.
The disk labels credit 3 songs to BMI and the rest to ASCAP making it the third label variation. The cover does NOT mention George Martin. The original blue Capitol inner sleeve is also included.
The disk is still in pretty nice shape. It has a lot of it's original gloss and it does have some surface marks. The record probably grades VG or about a 60 on a 100 point scale.
The cover is nice shape. There are no stickers, writing, or seam splits on the cover and just some light shelf wear. The cover grades VG+ to NM- or about an 80 on a 100 point scale.
I will start the bidding at $27.95, which should be a great starting price for this scarce Beatles collectible! I am NOT an 'expert' at grading records, but I do have a lot of experience and I have tried to describe any imperfections so that you know exactly what you are bidding on. The records are visually graded. In addition, I am including enlarged photos of the covers and records. Beware of any records being sold on ebay that do not include clear photos!
For you investment minded collectors, Beatles collectibles have always provided rock solid investment potential. Demand for quality Beatles products is always high and price guide values reflect that demand. For instance, the 1987 Beatles Price & Reference Guide by Perry Cox and Michael Miller said this record was worth $14 in VG condition and $28 in nm 24 years ago, while the 2007 price guide for Beatles American Records by Perry Cox and Frank Daniels says this record is worth $40 in VG condition and $150 in nm.
All records will be shipped in rigid cardboard record mailers and will clearly be marked "fragile". In order to keep shipping costs down, items will be sent via media mail. Buyers can select the priority mail option but the shipping cost is higher.
I will also combine auction wins to save on shipping costs. Those costs are based on the weight of the final package, so please wait for a combined invoice after all the auctions have closed.
Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
Winning bidders: Please make payment, or contact me and make payment arrangements within 3 days of end of auction.
