One of the RAREST EXAMPLES of this LP in MONO!

Beatles LP "A HARD DAY'S NIGHT" United Artists Records (UAL 3366). 
Rare MONO issued June 26, 1964. GORGEOUS condition for something now over 50 years old. If condition is important to you, there is nothing like this on ebay for sale currently!
Original Early MONO Pressing. VERY RARE VERSION which has "I CRY INSTEAD" on both the OUTER JACKET and LABEL! This is much harder to find than the "I'LL CRY INSTEAD" version which was originally considered a harder example to locate! NOT TRUE! This one is much RARER and much harder to find being mislabeled in both spots!  
Outer jacket is in EXCELLENT condition (STILL IN SHRINK) - NO WRITING - NO SPLITS. NO VISIBLE WEAR on edges or spine. The VINYL is in BEAUTIFUL condition with no issues at all. A very beautiful piece! 
Includes ORIGINAL United Artists INNER SLEEVE!
This is actually the RARER 1964 United Artists (UAL 3366) "MONO" pressing with the original BLACK LABEL with the COLORED CIRCLES ON TOP. This is a very EARLY OUTER JACKET crediting the song "THIS BOY" to MACLEN. 
This version is quite a RARE FIND in this very nice condition since most of these found today, are usually found quite hammered. These versions were pressed by several different companies such as Columbia, Waddell, and RCA.
Pricing BEATLES recordings is not like pricing any other artists. They are unique due to who they were and the tremendous impact they had on the history of recorded music. Although millions of BEATLE records were produced on several labels, many were actually released in limited quantities. In addition, an important factor to consider was "BEATLEMANIA" back in the 1960s. When teens back then bought records, little care was given to them. Most records were either overplayed or trashed which actually contributed to the overall increasing value of those that survived in a condition worthy of being called a "collectible" today. Due to their frenzy, a market of collectibles exists today some 50 years later. One can only guess at what's still out there that survived that would be worth collecting. Nevertheless, today's values need to be assigned only by experts and always based on a number of factors like  CONDITION, SCARCITY, RARITY & THE QUANTITY PRODUCED. As time passes, values will only continue to rise. Remember, price guides like GOLDMINE are fine for assessing the general value of most artists recordings. However when one considers the value and importance of groups like THE BEATLES and other Supergroups, one needs to seek the advice of an expert and not guides which continually undervalue most BEATLE records. They simply do not possess the knowledge, expertise and precise history necessary in order to accurately reflect today's market values.
If you have been looking for this LP for your collection, unless you find one still sealed, this would be one to consider buying! Although not 100% perfect (as is the case with anything) you would be hard pressed in today's market to find one much better. Very RARE especially in this condition and highly Collectible!
