Description

Hi there once again eBayers and welcome to my eBay Store!

Here I have a Rare - The Beatles "Please Please Me", LP Mono, Australia, Parlophone PMCO 1202.

This is the December 1963 release. Parlophone label changes with an added E.M.I. credit.

On label, manufacture credit on horizontal line, middle of label, the spacing of the gold print differs slightly from the other Jan 1964 issue gold and black example:
"Made in Australia by E.M.I. (Aust.) Limited"
It features higher than the other, (relative to the underline of the central PARLOPHONE symbol).

The rear cover has only one Mono cat. no. top right.

A1       I Saw Her Standing There

A2       Misery

A3       Anna (Go To Him)

A4       Chains

Barcode and Other Identifiers

Matrix / Runout (Runout side 1): XEX 421-1N

The vinyl is in good to very good condition.  There are some visible marks and scratches.  I detail the audio affect below.


The label is in very good condition. 


I always try and rate vinyl conservatively.


I have played the record and it plays well.  There is minor crackle, most noticeable at the start of side 1, but that tends to diminish.  Side 1, Track 2 has a skip at the start and a click throughout that track that diminishes on Track 3.  Side 2 plays very well, with only minor crackle.


The cover is in fair to good condition.  There's edge wear, some discolouration of the white areas, some bends and a record shadow.  The spine has a split in the centre that is 95mm long.  The rear has some small marks and stains.


Enlarge the photos for the best visual description of condition. Where I have used the flash, this shows detail, no flash is more indicative of colour.  It is difficult to capture the marks and scratches.  They are there, but are not significant.


Postage will be Australia Post 500g Parcel within Australia.  Overseas will depend upon destination.

Happy Bidding!
