On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called "A Hard Days Night" and is an ORIGINAL 1969 UK MONO Pressing on the LAST EVER Yellow & Black Parlophone label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE BEATLES RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS THE ALL TIME RAREST VARIATION OF THIS LP EVER MADE - AND THE LAST MONO OF THIS LP EVER PRESSED!!!!  AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  THIS LP WAS ONLY EVER PRESSED LIKE THIS IN MID 1969 (FOR 2 OR 3 MONTHS ONLY!) - AND IS ONE OF THE RAREST BEATLES VARIATIONS YOU WILL EVER SEE!!!!  EVEN STEREO VERSIONS OF THIS PRESSING ARE EXTREMELY RARE INDEED - BUT FINDING A MONO IS ALMOST UNHEARD OF!!!!  I WILL EXPLAIN JUST HOW RARE THIS LP REALLY IS!!!! 

IN MAY 1969 PARLOPHONE DECIDED TO 'DROP' THE 'SOLD IN THE UK' TEXT ON THEIR LABELS - AS IT WAS NO LONGER REQUIRED!!!!  AND SO BETWEEN JUNE 1969 & LATE 1969 PARLOPHONE USED THIS VERY SHORT LIVED YELLOW & BLACK PARLOPHONE LABEL - WITH NO 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT!!!!  NOW THIS WOULD BE RARE ENOUGH IN ITS OWN RIGHT (IN STEREO) - AS SALES OF THIS LP BY MID 1969 WERE VERY POOR INDEED, AND THIS PRESSED ONLY LASTED 2 OR 3 MONTHS ONLY!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS TRULY SPECIAL - IS THAT IT IS PRESSED IN MEGA RARE MONO!!!!  AS MOST PEOPLE WILL KNOW, MONOs BY MID 1969 WERE DEAD IN THE WATER, AND VIRTUALLY FINISHED AS A VIABLE PRESSING ALTERNATIVE!!!!  MOST RECORD COMPANIES HAD ALREADY STOPPED MONO PRODUCTION ALTOGETHER, AND IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT EVEN PARLOPHONE HAD STOPPED ALL MONO PRESSINGS ON ITS NEW RELEASES (WHICH IS WHY YOU WILL NEVER FIND A PARLOPHONE MONO 1ST PRESSING OF ANY LP ON THIS LABEL STYLE!!!!  SO IN REALITY - MONO PRESSINGS OF THIS LP SHOULDNT EVEN EXIST ON THIS LABEL AT ALL!!!!  HOWEVER, ALTHOUGH PARLOPHONE WANTED TO END MONO PRODUCTION ON ALL OF ITS LPs, BECAUSE THIS LP WAS SELLING SO POORLY BY 1969 - THEY STILL HAD A SMALL STOCKPILE OF UNUSED MONO 1ST PRESS COVERS LEFT OVER WHICH THEY NEEDED TO GET RID OF!!!!  SO THIS RAREST EVER MONO PRESSING WAS PUT INTO EXISTENCE, BUT ONLY LASTED UNTIL THE STOCKPILE OF 1ST PRESS MONO COVERS RAN OUT (FEW HUNDRED COPIES ONLY!)!!!!  AND ONCE ALL THE MONO COVERS WERE USED UP, MONO PRESSINGS WERE STOPPED FOREVER!!!!  AND UNLIKE SOME OF THE OTHER BEATLES LPs (LIKE 'HELP!', 'PLEASE PLEASE ME' AND ESPECIALLY 'SGT PEPPER') - 'A HARD DAYS NIGHT' ONLY HAD A TINY AMOUNT OF COVERS LEFT OVER!!!!  SO ALTHOUGH THIS LABEL STYLE LASTED 2 OR 3 MONTHS - FAR LESS TIME THAN THAT WAS DEVOTED TO THE MONO PRESSINGS, AS ONLY A FEW HUNDRED NEEDED TO BE MADE - BEFORE THE COVERS RAN OUT, AND ALL MONOs OF THIS LP WERE ENDED FOREVER!!!!  AS I SAID BEFORE - EVEN STEREO PRESSINGS OF THIS LP (ON THIS LABEL STYLE) ARE VERY HARD TO LOCATE - BUT AS MOST PEOPLE STILL WANTED STEREOs IN 1969, AND STEREOs WERE PRESSED THOUGHOUT THE 3 MONTH LABEL PERIOD, THEY WERE MADE IN REASONABLE AMOUNTS.  BUT FINDING AN ULTRA RARE MONO PRESSING OF THIS LP ON THIS LABEL STYLE (THE LAST EVER!) IS ALMOST UNHEARD OF - AND IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE RAREST PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE!!!!
