I am selling more BEATLES LPs from my collection. So, please check my other current and upcoming auctions.

In this auction: 

·       “THE BEATLES SECOND ALBUM” by the Beatles  

·       This LP is Capitol Records ST 2080.

·       The vinyl comes in a Capitol-marked cover on front, rear, and spine.

·       This is a STEREO Pressing.

·       This LP was issued in 1964.

·       According to Perry Cox, this LP, with COVER constructed of cardboard with cover slick pasted on, was issued from Capitol Records’ Scranton pressing plant. This is based on the number “2” printed on the rear cover at lower right.

·       The VINYL has a triangle (?) containing the letters “IAM” in the trail-off. This is the symbol Capitol Records used to identify vinyl pressed at its Scranton Pressing Plant.

·       THEREFORE, this cover and vinyl are correctly paired (as they were issued) from the same Capitol pressing plant.

·       NOTE: Some sellers may intentionally or accidentally switch vinyl and covers in order to create an LP with a higher grade cover and vinyl, but NOT correctly matched to the same pressing plant. I don’t do that. This is the correct cover and vinyl for this pressing/issue.

·       The record in this auction has the RARE LABEL VARIATION. The second song on Side 2, “I CALL YOUR NAME”, is MISSPELLED. It is printed as “I CALL YOU NAME”. This song is also credited to BMI and has NO Running Time. Check your Price Guide for the Beatles American Records by Perry Cox and Frank Daniels and you will see how this RARE LABEL VARIATION is valued much more compared to other stereo pressings of this LP.

·       The COVER is graded STRONG VG+ to NEAR MINT MINUS CONDITION. There is very light overall aging of this off-white (light-colored) cover. There are 2 very tiny corner pushes on the bottom left and right corners. The reverse is quite clean aside from some aging near the opening and near the spine. (Check Images). The spine and seams are nice and strong with no wear or flaking. Of course, there is NO ring wear, NO tears, NO writing, and NO seam splits on this cover.

·       The VINYL is graded NEAR MINT MINUS.

·       This LP comes with a BLUE CAPITOL RECORDS INNER PAPER SLEEVE which is the correct sleeve for this Capitol vinyl issue.  

It’s a GREAT BEATLES LP with the RARE LABEL MISSPELLING for YOU (I mean “YOUR”) Beatles or vinyl collection.
