Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.

THE BEATLES
Nowhere Man
Original 1965 1st Press EP!
In Phenomenal Condition!
This auction is for a very rare, original 1965 1st press of the Beatles EP 'Nowhere Man'
EPs were an interesting format back in the '60s. It offered a small selection of songs from the latest album that a fan could buy if they couldn't afford the album, or could be bought almost like a teaser to advertise the album it came from.
Back in the early '60s this was a popular format and the early Beatles EPs can be found everywhere. However, as time progressed to the mid '60s, the format lost a lot of favour and, by the time the Nowhere Man EP was issued in 1965, it was an near-obsolete format. Sales were really low for Nowhere Man and only managed to reach number 5 in the EP charts, dropping back out entirely after just 18 weeks.
Due to how poorly the EP sold at the time, it is now incredibly hard to find today!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

My 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.
