The Beatles
Original and very historic Beatles 45 with picture sleeve
My Bonnie/The Saints German Polydor #24 673, released 1962Tony Sheridan and the Beat Brothers
Record condition: Mint minus to Excellent plus
Sleeve condition: Excellent minus (wear consistent with grade, 1.5 inches of residue from removed tape, evidence of a repaired tear)
This is the first ever Beatles record released anywhere in the world!
It's the version with the word "Twist" appearing on the picture sleeve and under the title "My Bonnie" on the A side label. This is true Beatles history here and it's documented in all the Beatles books. The Beatles (as the "Beat Brothers") were the backing band for singer Tony Sheridan, Germany's answer to Elvis Presley at the time! The record and sleeve would make a great framed display. (As a fan myself, I have a copy framed and hanging on my wall with the U.S. I Want to Hold Your Hand Capitol 45 and picture sleeve---two landmark "firsts" for the Beatles.)
A wonderful collectible no Beatles fan should be without. Would make a great gift!
Shipping and handling is $2.95 in the U.S. and Canada. For all other countries, it's $7.95.
Fast, reliable service. Items will be shipped out within 24 hours of clear payment. And as always, satisfaction is unconditionally guaranteed.

I use Record Collector Magazine grading standards as follows:
MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
