Description
This is a UK MONO 1st pressing, of The Beatles 'Help' LP on the black & yellow Parlophone label in lovely condition. The Garrod & Lofthouse house printed cover is a lovely crisp, firm & fully intact example though the laminate has yellowed a little through ageing, the rear is still lovely and white, graded EXCELLENT PLUS. The labels are lovely and clean with little sign of play, the raised MT tax code is clearly visible on Side 1 . They carry the correct 'Gramophone Co...' & 'Sold in the UK...' credits. The vinyl is beautifully clean & glossy, just a few very light hairlines from sleeve removal visible only under very bright light only. Graded MINT MINUS, the playback is fantastic with no problems of any kind to report even the gaps berween tracks are virtually silent. It has been clearly been played very carefully very few times and it is hard to imagine a better example.. Overall a great copy with vinyl that would definitely satisfy anyone looking for a final upgrade. Comes with its original EMITEX inner
Matrix info: Side 1: XEX 549-2, stampers AMD at 2 o'clock, 6 at 9, Side 2: XEX 550-2, stampers 5 at 10, ARD at 3
I have been a collector for any years and a now selling most of my vinyl to fund a change of career. All records are thoroughly cleaned on my ClearAudio Smart Matrix machine and then carefully played on a Rega Planar 3 deck with Goldring cartridge. I use strict RC gradings with plus and minus to indicate variation and all records are sent out in professional mailers. I offer a full refund minus return postage should you not be satisfied with how I've graded a record
