If you were a fan of a band or group back in the day, you wanted everything they released….albums, singles, B-sides, etc.

And if you knew what was what, you wanted the oh so much better JAPANESE PRESSINGS.

You know what I mean….they sounded much better than US pressings, with clean quiet vinyl and all of the extras that the Japanese were known for.

If you were a buyer of these pressings, you secretly scoffed at all of your friends who wasted their hard earned cash on mediocre US copies.

This Box Set is no different.

This Set was released as a numbered limited edition (number plate on box).  Each record was pressed with an APPLE Label (not Odeon or Japanese EMI).

This set was released in 1979 by Toshiba EMI Japan, concurrently with the well known UK BC-13 Box.

ALL of the pressings in this box set were specifically re-mastered and pressed for this set, complete with new matrix and label numbers.

The pressings in this set are unique to this set !!!

What distinguishes this set from the UK/US and other “Blue Boxes” is the attention to detail that the Japanese are known for:

·        ALL of the pressings are on 100% heavy weight virgin vinyl.  They are dead flat and dead silent.

·        EACH record is protected by a VRP Rice Paper Inner Sleeve

You probably dropped more than a few bucks on these way back when….

·        Separate Lyric Sheets for Each Record

·        A Beatles Picture Book

·        2 Beatles Posters

·        A collection of individual Beatle “Head Shots”\

No exceptions. 

You would be surprised what scammers try to get away with.

I have been asked why I have this policy.  I have had 2 instances where supposedly "Good" Funds (Credit Card and Certified Check) have turned out to be fraudulent.  In both cashes I did not find out until after I had shipped the item.  Thus I lost the payment, the item and had to pay returned payment fees to my bank !  Since I have instituted this policy I have prevented 3 scammers from succeeding after their fraudulent payments failed to clear my bank. 

If you do not agree with my policy or think that it may present a problem for you, please do not bid.
