Description

MEET THE BEATLES Rare Stereo Version 1st Edition with No BMI or ASCAP credits.

This album is very rare as comments noted below from a New York Beatles memorabilia dealer explain:

"NO DOUBT THESE EARLY COPIES WERE SWEPT OFF THE SHELVES DURING THE ONSLAUGHT OF BEATLEMANIA AND MOST HAVE BEEN PLAYED BEYOND RECOGNITION AND TOSSED OUT. TODAY, ONLY ABOUT 20 TO 25 EXAMPLES HAVE BEEN VERIFIED SO FAR TO SURVIVE AND OF THOSE ONLY ABOUT 12 STEREO COPIES HAVE BEEN VERIFIED."

MOST VITAL STATISTIC IS THAT SINCE ONLY FIFTEEN PERCENT OF CAPITOL'S BEATLES ALBUMS MANUFACTURED PRIOR TO 1966 WERE STEREO, IMAGINE THE SCARCITY OF THE FIRST LABEL (NO PUBLISHING CREDITS) STEREO PRESSINGS!! "- Fab4Collectibles New York

I am not a dealer and can only say that this is a very nice record visually... both the vinyl and the cover are very collectible. I am not familiar with how to grade records but this one appears to be VG or better as I understand the term.

I no longer own a record player and so have not 'play tested' it for 'skips or pops' Please see photos for details.
