The Beatles' Australian 10th Anniversary 1963-1973 - Greatest Hits Volume 1 And 2
Original 1973 Western Australian issue this unusual Australia only release.In February of 1973, Ten years after their first album, and Three years after their last album, a group of affiliated radio stations across Australia, sponsored the release of an LP that packaged together the Two previously released compilations, Greatest Hits Volume 1 & Volume 2 as, "The Beatles Greatest Hits Volumes One And Two (The Beatles' Australian 10th Anniversary 1963-1973)"
The vinyl was housed in a custom gatefold sleeve, to which was attached a gold sticker bearing the name of the radio station which was promoting the album in a particular Australian State or Territory. - This one is from Perth, Western Australia, AM radio station 6PR
While there was no new content, or new mixes of old content, on the album, the labels discarded the orange hue that characterised contemporary Australian Beatles releases, in favour of a more subdued lilac / purple colour.
Not a particularly earth-shattering variation perhaps but one which undeniably adds to the unique character of the Australian Beatles labelography.
The album was only available for only two months.
The radio stations involved were:
Sydney - 2UE
Newcastle - 2KO
Melbourne - 3DB
Brisbane - 4BK
Adelaide - 5AD
Perth - 6PR (this one)
Hobart - 7HT
Launceston - 7EX
Label: Parlophone – PCSS 7533/4 Format: 2 x Vinyl, LP, Compilation, Limited Edition, Stereo, 6PR Country: Australia Released: Feb 1973 Genre: Rock Style: Rock & Roll, Pop Rock

A few words about condition.
Grade &
score out of 100
GRADING
Mint is a Rigid Band - The next Four Grades are all Narrow Bands, that slightly widen as the condition gradually deteriorates - Good is still Good, but there is a rapid widening of the Grade Bands, as the condition deteriorates over the last Four grades.

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated, but the record will still play through, and it will not be a completely unpleasant listening experience, even at the bottom of this grade (56).
The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR
41 to 55

The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR

The Sleeve is non existent (0) or what is left, is only just recognisable.
A few words about postage.
Within Australia, the best value for multiple purchases is a 5KG satchel, where as many as 15 to 20 LPs can be posted for $22.00 registered post. (well packed in a box, inside the satchel)
My Policies on postage are simple.
The user pays.
I package well.
Any item that you purchase without choosing the option of "Signed for" or "Registered" Post, is at your risk.
I do accept that "signed for" can be expensive, especially internationally, but whether you take the option of this insurance, is entirely up to you.
I do not wish to withdraw the option of standard postage for the cheaper records, but it must be at your risk.
