Description
BEATLES / INTRODUCING THE BEATLES / '64 MONO LP 1062 AUDIOMATRIX 2-12-64 ARC EX-
Clearly Authentic -- it passes the all the tests.
This is the version with Please Please Me with no comma on the cover and record. The record has brackets, colorband, left justified titles / indented credits / "LONG PLAYING" two words. "ARC," denoting the plant, is in the deadwax. In the deadwax, I also see what I believe is the Audiomatrix stamp and the date 2 12 64 appears to be lightly etched on both sides (it is harder to make out on side 2).
GRADING:
Vinyl is at least EX-, beautiful with some slight hairlines and plays at least EX. Sound is fantastic.
Cover is VG+, nice cover with some shelf wear/discoloration (age spotting on back) and some corner wear/dents (see photos).
Please check my other auctions and those to come.
Grade Scale:
(S) SEALED = VINYL assumed mint, never open.
(NM) NEAR MINT = VINYL nearly perfect, no obvious signs of wear. COVER should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes.
(VG++ or EX) VERY GOOD PLUS PLUS or EXCELLENT = VINYL almost NM but it might have a few more superficial signs of use and slight sleeve scuffing. COVER may only have the slightest signs of normal wear.
(VG+/VG++) Between VERY GOOD PLUS and VERY GOOD PLUS PLUS = VINYL may have a bit more signs of use & scuffing than VG++. Surface noise will be more noticeable. COVER may have slight ring wear or discoloration. Very small seam split.
( VG+ ) VERY GOOD PLUS = VINYL may have scuff marks, very light scratches and signs of some wear and will have surface noise in spots, generally still has it's luster. COVER will have slightly more ring wear or discoloration. Minor seam split.
( VG ) VERY GOOD = VINYL has more noticeable scuffs and scratches. Surface noise will be noticeable (may crackle, pop or make other annoying noises), especially in the quiet areas. COVER has minor writing, tape or sticker, ring wear and more seam splits.( G ) GOOD = VINYL may have multiple scratches or small gouge(s), may have continuous crackles, pops, significant surface noise.
