Description
You are bidding on a GENUINE 3RD PRESSING of
The Beatles
"PLEASE PLEASE ME"
STEREO
This is the FAMOUS "Third Pressing STEREO" which many claim to be even scarcer than the Black and Gold mono. These 3rd PRESS Issues were only made for a very short time after the takeover of the Black/Gold counterparts, and this particular STEREO copy....EVEN SHORTER!! as more demand was for Mono.
Released in 1963
Black Label with Yellow PARLOPHONE and familiar Yellow "Pound sign"
Large 33'1/3 rpm and STEREO text
OMMITING the " sold in the U.K. text " !!!
also omitting "Recording First Published" text
THE SLEEVE.. Earliest ERNEST J. DAY & Co Ltd , and as I understand commonly called "GOLD"
Large STEREO on top right hand side
CONDITION... I have attempted to capture images of this record as honestly as I possibly can and I think they do it justice! This is not a Mint L.P. but the vinyl is visually STUNNING and is one of the best examples of this ULTRA RARE album I have seen in years!
The overall handling of this album is an unexpected pleasure, I am aware of the quality of the package and the heavyweight vinyl is re-assuring!
The sleeve shows no major deterioration, only some creasing mainly to bottom left and right corners and slight wear to same. The rear of sleeve is very tidy with no writing etc .. and no major discolouration.
original printed inner sleeve... Fully intact with no rips or major creasing
The Rare" K T Tax code Stamp " is evident on the bottom right hand corner!
The Vinyl.. Visually very very acceptable. Under very strong or natural light it shows barely any scuffing one would expect from a record 46 Years old!! but there are no major scratches and each track plays through both sides with no jumps or major hiss with the exception of track 1 on side 1 where there is a very short hiss at the very beginning of the vocal. There is only minimal clicks as you would expect to find on vinyl of this age between tracks and quiet passages. The disc is completely flat with no warping whatsoever.
Audio... Sounds STUNNING! as you come to expect from these early STEREO PRESSINGS!
Labels... Nice and clean with no tears and very slight spindle wear.
Please note the K.T. TAX CODE STAMP ON THE BACK COVER!
Side 1 Matrix YEX 94-1
Side 2 Matrix YEX 95-1
Mother stampers.. Side 1 at 9 oclock ... 1

GOOD LUCK!
