Description
YOU ARE BIDDING ON ONE VERY RARE (ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION) BEATLES ALBUM TITLED "PLEASE PLEASE ME" FIRST PRESS GOLD AND BLACK LABEL WITH "DICK JAMES" CREDITED ON BOTH SIDES, ALSO THE COVER CREDITS ARE ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT (THIS APPARENTLY MAKES IT ONE OF THE VERY FIRST!!!). CAME FROM MY MOTHER WHO WAS AND STILL IS A BEATLES FANATIC!!!
AS YOU CAN SEE THE RECORD IS MINT!!! THE INNER ORIGINAL EMITEX SLEEVE IS ALSO NOT FAR FROM MINT WITH ONLY SLIGHT CREASE MARKS AS PICTURED, NO TEARS, WRITING OR EVEN MUCH DISCOLOURATION CAN BE SEEN. AS FOR THE OUTER COVER HAS VERY SLIGHT WEAR ON THE CORNERS AND MINIMAL STORAGE MARKS, NO FOLD BACK OR BADLY GLUED PARTS. ABSOLUTLY NO REPAIR HAS BEEN DONE SO FOR AN OVER 50YR OLD RECORD IT'S AMAZING!!!
PMC 1202
XEX.422-1N XEX421-1N
I HAVE NOT MYSELF PLAYED THIS RECORD AS I DON'T HAVE SUITABLE EQUIPMENT (DON'T WANT TO RUIN THIS PIECE OF HISTORY) BUT I HAVE IT ON MY MOTHERS GOOD WORD THAT IT WAS ONLY EVER PLAYED ABOUT HALF A DOZEN TIMES AND ALWAYS PLAYED VERY CLEAR WITH NO SKIPS.
REALISING THE ACTUAL VALUE OF THIS RECORD I GUESS I NEED TO DO A GRADING. UPON VERY CLOSE INSPECTION I CAN ONLY SPOT 2 VERY LIGHT SCRATCHES ON THE WHOLE LP WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED JUST BY REMOVING THE RECORD FROM THE SLEAVE BUT THEY R SO MINOR I SEARCHED FOR A GOOD HOUR USING REFLECTIONS JUST TO SPOT ANYTHING. THE LABEL IS ALSO OF A VERY HIGH STANDARD TINY BIT OF WEAR WHERE IT WOULD SIT ON THE SPINDEL AND THAT'S IT!!!
IN MY OPINION YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER COPY AROUND UNLESS IT'S NEVER BEEN PLAYED AND WRAPPED IN BUBBLE WRAP FOR ITS WHOLE LIFE, QUESTIONS AND EVEN A VIEWING IS WELCOME JUST TO SEE HOW GOOD IT IS. I HAVE BEEN AS HONEST AS I CAN AS I'M NOT A RECORD DEALER AND THIS IS ALL NEW TO ME.
COLLECTION PREFERED BUT DELIVERY WOULD BE OF A VERY HIGH STANDARD AS I WORK FOR A PACKING COMPANY AND WILL MAKE SURE IT'S VERY VERY VERY VERY WELL PROTECTED.
HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!!
