Beatles Second Album MONO shrink w/rare label variation

W/running times for Long Tall Sally & I Call Your Name

Mono CONTRACT pressing of The Beatles Second Album (Capitol T-2080) with RARE side 2 label listing the running times for Long Tall Sally and I Call Your Name in great condition.  Additionally, this LP comes with its original "K Mart" store stickered plastic sleeve.
The very 1st issue of this LP omitted the running times for the tracks "Long Tall Sally" and "I Call Your Name". The corrected 2nd pressing is actually considered substantially rarer than  mono pressings without the running times as they were only pressed this way for a short span of time before the LP was issued yet again without the running times for those tracks. 
Also, contract pressings are Beatles records issued by Capitol Records that have discs pressed at other record companies' pressing plants. This happened when Capitol's own factories could not keep up with the demand of Beatles albums and they would "contract" out the pressing of records to other record pressing factories. This Beatles Second Album offered for auction is a contract pressing.

Grading: We are conservative graders and try to be as concise and as accurate as possible without a lot of the standard hype.  We will never explain the condition of an item by saying it "looks good for something this old" as we consider that patronizing and an insult to potential buyers. Please ask us questions about any details about the item before bidding.

Records that are not sealed in their original shrink-wrap will never be shipped in their original jackets. All vinyl will be in poly-lined sleeves and outside of their original jackets so that no seam splitting can result from the shipping process.

Shipping charges for vinyl discs, posters and memorabilia include the cost of postage and boxes with extra padding. Good packaging is not cost effective but we insist upon safe and secure packaging. We do not want you to receive damaged items!
