Description
PLEASE READ FIRST!
I'm having to make this even clearer as people are still buying records I'm grading low and as a 'collection filler', and then complain about the audio quality when they try to play them. As I do not own a record player I VISUALLY GRADE my records, so I cannotguarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
Please Please Me
Very Rare '3rd Press' with No 'Recording' Text on the Labels. In GOLD Sleeve!
On offer here is a very rare early press of the Beatles debut LP 'Please Please Me' on the Parlophone label.
This is the early '3rd press' style where the label omits the 'Recording First Publised 1963' text on the label. The disc comes in an early 'gold' style sleeve with the Angus McBean photo credit aligned to the right of the second S in Songs (common, later copies have this photo credit more to the left aligned to the left side of the second S in Songs)
Hard to find and collectible. Not in the best condition and so is being offered as a collection filler. Not a play copy!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

My Regarding Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.price rating
