'ZT' TAX CODE ON SIDE TWO LABEL
THIS IS A VERY EARLY MONO 3RD PRESSING.
WITH THE 'PARLOPHONE CO LTD' RIM LABEL TEXT BUT WITHOUT 'RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED...' AND 'SOLD IN THE UK'
THE VERY EARLY MOTHER STAMPS AND 'ZT' TAX CODE INDICATE THAT THIS WAS PRESSED IN EARLY 1963, PROBABLY IN APRIL. IT IS VERY RARE TO FIND ONE, AT ALL, LET ALONE IN THIS CONDITION.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. ON VISUAL INSPECTION THE ONLY MARK I CAN SEE IS A SMALL MARK ON SIDE ONE (SEE PHOTO). I CANNOT FEEL THIS AND IT CANNOT BE HEARD ON PLAYBACK. THE VINYL IS BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN, GLOSSY AND LOOKS VIRTUALLY UNPLAYED. THE CONDITION IS UNBELIEVABLE, CONSIDERING THIS IS A GENUINE 1963 RECORD.
ON PLAYING, IT SOUNDS AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS. THE RUN-INS AND TRACK SEPERATIONS ARE VIRTUALLY SILENT. EACH TRACK IS CLEAR AND CRISP. THE PLAYBACK SHOWS THAT THIS RECORD HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER AND HAS DEFINATELY NOT HAD MANY PLAYS.
THE LABELS
THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. THEY HAVE NO WRITING, STICKERS OR DAMAGE. THERE ARE NO SPINDLE MARKS VISIBLE, WHICH SHOWS HOW LITTLE THIS RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED. THE TEXT LETTERING IS ALL VISIBLE AND CLEAR. SIDE TWO HAS THE 'ZT' TAX CODES EMBOSSED. THERE IS A FAINT 'M' AT 12 O'CLOCK, JUST ABOVE THE SPINDLE HOLE.
THE COVER
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIP BACK COVER WITH LARGE MONO LETTERING. IT IS PRINTED AND MADE BY ERNEST J. DAY & CO LTD. THE COVER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. IT REMAINS STRONG, STURDY AND INTACT. THERE IS VERY LITTLE WEAR TO THE CORNERS AND EDGES. THE SPINE LETTERING IS VISIBLE AND CLEAR WITH NO SPINE DAMAGE. THERE ARE ONLY A COUPLE OF SMALL LIGHT CREASES VISIBLE NEAR THE EDGES. THE UN-LAMINATED BACK REMAINS CLEAN WITH ONLY A LITTLE RING WEAR RUBBING. THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT OF DAMAGE TO THE TOP FLAP (SEE PHOTO). THERE IS ALSO A NAME WRITTEN ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND A 'KT' STICKER TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND CORNER.
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE ORIGINAL 'EMITEX' INNER SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT HAS 'PATENTS APPLIED FOR' ON THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER. IT REMAINS CLEAN WITH ONLY SLIGHT CREASING. THE EDGES HAVE NO SEAM SPLITS.
