Description
THE BEATLES HYPER RARE CONTRACT PRESSING OF HEY JUDE c/w REVOLUTION, UK ORIGINAL 1968 APPLE R5722
RECORD VERY GOOD MINUS
LABELS VERY GOOD PLUS
ORIGINAL GLOSSY APPLE SLEEVE GOOD PLUS
THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE PHILIPS OR ISLAND RECORDS CONTRACT PRESSING. IT HAS A TEXTURED, RATHER THAN SMOOTH, LABEL ON BOTH SIDES, AND A RIM RUNNING AROUND THE LABEL ABOUT 3mm FROM THE EDGE.
AS WITH ALL CONTRACT PRESSINGS OF BEATLES SINGLES, IT HAS NO MARKINGS IN THE 3 O'CLOCK POSITION IN THE RUN-OFF GROOVE.
THIS IS EITHER A "PHILIPS" OR AN "ISLAND" CONTRACT PRESSING - THERE IS EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT EITHER CASE, BUT REGARDLESS OF THE MANUFACTURER, THIS IS AN EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND AND RARE RECORD.
SOME PEOPLE ARE ARE ADAMANT THAT PHILIPS DID NOT PRESS SOLID CENTRES - PLEASE REFER TO OUR PICTURES FOR EVIDENCE THAT THE PHILIPS FONTANA RECORD COMPANY DID PRESS THESE!
OUR OTHER EXAMPLE IS AN ISLAND PRESSING.
BOTH OF THESE EXAMPLES HAVE A TEXTURED LABEL AND RIM.
SO TAKE YOUR PICK - WHATEVER YOU DECIDE, ONE THING IS FOR SURE YOU'LL BE THE PROUD OWNER OF AN EXTREMELY RARE COPY OF HEY JUDE!!!!!
