12" APPLE CUSTOM ACETATE LP - MONO
Beatles related in that its their record label that cut this acetate, not that they appear on this so far as I'm aware.  Its does appear that Wayne Fontana was the drummer from discogs though!

This is an original genuine Apple Custom acetate, not repro or modern pressing. I've owned it for 15 years as I'd never had an apple acetate before, but since I've never played it, clearly is time to put it to better use. 

It came from a batch of record reviewer LP's including some Greenwich Gramophone LP's and rare Dawn LP's (Atlantic Bridge / Heron) from a completely trustworthy source so I can be 100% sure its authentic
Have gone for the listing categories as per discogs.
Young and Renshaw Paul Young ( Sad Cafe, Mike and Mechanics, not the other one that sang Wherever I lay my hat) Frank Renshaw

Title:  Unknown.   They only released one LP in Germany.  So far as UK is concerned this was unreleased

Apple Corps Ltd, Apple Custom assumed 1970 / 1971
Condition
Record: VG as has a few marks that I suspect may cause a tick.  Its completely clear of the horrible white palmitic acid that so many acetates from this era are suffering from so ideal to archive or remaster.  Being they have a limited number of plays before they degrade I've not done a full check..  I have done a spot check in a couple of places and its definitely them!  Would benefit from a professional clean to clear an groove debris from an acetate specialist (remember not with alcohol based cleaners!!!) 
Would also say that labels are great (with a some spindle marks) but camera has made them brighter than real life, for some reason.
Sleeve:   Plain white as seen since its probably original, but will also put in a better condition one also 

I use record collector grading but also add a + and - where necessary since their grading standard can be too simplistic.

Mint (M): The record is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.  Please note I normally use Near Mint since unless sealed there will always be a minor imperfection!

Excellent (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packag­ing might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable sur­face marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

Fair (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for prop­erly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
