Description
The Beatles - "A Collection of Oldies...' 1966 FIRST PRESS!!! stereo PCS 7016 Parlophone UK pressing vinyl LP with very early Motherstampers 1M 1A!!!
This particular pressing features a few rarities!!! Firstly, it is a STEREO copy dating from the mid-sixties. This is quite rare!!! as the demand for mono records completely out-weighed the demand for stereo records. Thus, far fewer stereo copies were produced! Also, the sleeve is manufactured by 'EJ DAY'...mid-sixties stereo sleeves were usually printed by 'Garrod & Lofthouse' so a nice rarity! Also, it features VERY early mother stampers - possibly one of the first 300 ever pressed using the third and fourth lacquers!
All the records I sell are from my private collection and handled my records always with care and love for the music and vinyl. Condition:
Vinyl (visual): Side 1 - a few hairline marks and scratches but none that I can feel! Has a lovely gloss and shine and looks great! Rated as VERY GOOD+!!!. Label is EXCELLENT-!!!. Side 2 - has a VERY light feelable mark to track 3 - doesn't cause any skips, jumps or sticks on my system! Elsewhere, a few hairlines and marks but nothing else feelable. Lovely gloss and shine! Rated as VERY GOOD. Label is VERY GOOD+!!!.
Sleeve: The original 1966 stereo EJ DAY sleeve is in VERY GOOD+ condition! The front has a lovely gloss and shine, with some light laminate creasing towards the edges and a price sticker removal mark towards the top left (could probably be removed if you have the know-how). The rear of the sleeve is nice and clean and white with a few marks to the flipbacks but they are held down tightly. Free from writing and graffiti. The spine is 100% readable and slightly rounded. All clean, all edges intact, houses the record well - a great RARE sleeve! Audio : Excellent!!! Innersleeve : Original Emitex Innersleeve!!!
Matrixnrs : Side 1 : YEX 619-1G Side 2 : YEX 620-1G
Mother Stampers : 1M 1A Very early Mother Stampers!!!
