Incredible very early UK Mono pressing of The Beatles Help! in Near Mint condition and possibly played only a couple of times! We've never come across a copy of this album in such an amazing condition. This very early UK copy of Help!, the fifth Beatles' studio album, released by Parlophone Records on August 6, 1965, is the very early Mono UK pressing with the very early 1st -2 / -2 matrix numbers and KT tax code. 1st laminated Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. print wrap around flap over round-cut corner single type cover contains the "middle" and outline type "Mono" banner at the top right corner of the front cover and "TRADE MARK OF THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD." text printed under the Parlophone logomark at the top left corner. The top right corner of the back cover contains the Catalog No. "PMC 1255" with the bottom right corner containing the "6509 Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patents pending PMC 1255 PCS 3071" text on the flap-over border, below the "USE NEW EMITEX" record cleaner information. Very early black Parlophone Records labels with silver print, large yellow "Parlophone" banner, PMC 1255 Catalog Number, "THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD. (capital letter)" text printed at the perimeter, "(P) 1965" statement on the left and embossed "KT" tax code at the center of Side 1 label, near the spindle hole. Very rare label variation with the text printed in the "Roman" type with "THE BEATLES" printed in the same typeface at the bottom of the labels. The labels also contain a very rare slender font type. The issue comes with the original tracing-rice-paper-lined “Use Emitex” die-cut inner sleeve. Very early 1st heavyweight, approximately 166g, vinyl with the very early 1st matrix numbers and 1st mother stampers: Side 1 - XEX 549 - 2 ALP / Side 2 - XEX 550 - 2 AHP. Don't let this copy get away as perhaps, this is the only opportunity you'll have to acquire this very early 1st pressing Mono UK version of Help! in such an outstanding condition.

ATTENTION INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS! USPS can no longer accept or deliver international mail temporary to several countries due to the service impacts. Please check whether your country is on the list of temporary service and guaranteed-delivery suspensions. Additionally, please take into consideration that the disruption of air mail schedule causes significant delays, which affect the expected delivery date declared by eBay and USPS. From our side, we guarantee the prompt shipping of the item within 24 hours after receiving payment.


Please pay attention that we DON'T ship to Russia and Germany. No exceptions. We'll immediately cancel the transaction if our policy conditions are violated. Sorry about that.

POLICY:

Realizing how important it is to secure the safety of the item you've paid your money for, I'll put my best effort into packing the records as best as possible, triple boxing them into the specialized professional boxes, with the two outer boxes having a special construction with extended cardboard on the edges to prevent the record covers' corners from getting damaged during the transit, and will also put the vinyl outside of the cover (of course, unless it's a sealed record) to prevent the splitting. I always try responding to the messages, but please, before sending me a message, make sure that the answer to your question isn't included in the description. I'll use my right to block a buyer, who doesn't correspond to my idea of politeness, culture and respect toward each other. If you want to participate in my auction, please be honest and positive, and I'll be mutual with you. I'll remove the bids of a buyer with zero rating, unless he contacts me prior to placing a bid.
