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.
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
Paperback Writer / Rain
Mega Rare Thin / Narrow Typeset Variation!
On offer here is an exceptionally rare copy of the Beatles single Paperback Writer / Rain on the UK Parlophone label.
This copy features the impossibly hard to find thin / narrow typeset on the labels.
Do not underestimate just how hard to find these are. If you go through every single copy of this single currently up for sale on eBay you will not find another one. For some reason the run of singles using the narrow typeset was miniscule, and 99.999999% of all copies produced use the standard chubbier typeset. These are so much harder to find than a gold label or 'extra 33 1/3' Please Please Me, black label Love Me Do etc (these are sold due to their high rarity factors but you'll always find at least one up for sale at any given time).
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.price rating
