On Oct. 1, 1964, Vee Jay packaged its Introducing the Beatles album together with The Golden Hits of the Four Seasons, calling the collection The Beatles Vs. The Four Seasons. The front cover featured new drawings of the Beatles and the Four Seasons, plus listings of all the songs. The back cover featured a 'scorecard'. The album was issued with a poster which featured the drawings of the Beatles from the VJ 587 picture sleeve.
Beatles vs. The Four Seasons Vee Jay VJDX-30 (mono) Black labels with color band. Brackets logo. The labels list the original titles of the albums. Several thousand copies were made.
A beautiful example of this VERY RARE Double LP Set from Vee-Jay Records. Album cover is in Fantastic Condition. No marks on front or back other than a bit of minimal age rubbing. The back cover scorecard has not been filled in and is still blank!! The spine of the jacket is totally intact with no rips or tears. Words all intact and readable on end spine of jacket. The only flaw I can find is in the centerfold of the jacket where there is a very slight 1" tear. Looks like it can be repaired since all the original cover materials are still intact. Corners of the album jacket are still quite sharp with minimal wear. Overall, a great piece of Rare Beatles history to add to your collection!!
Vinyl is Beautiful with minimal surface scratches and flaws. Near Mint Minus, Labels are clean and colors are bright! Labels are virtually mark free. Will be shipped with white original album liners.
Note: Poster that originally came with this set is not included. I never had it to begin with.
A definite rare keeper for your collection!!
All Items will be carefully packed and shipped. Please contact me with any questions. Will Ship Worldwide. Rates may differ depending upon country shipped to.
Goldmine Standard Record Grading
Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.
Near Mint (NM or M-)
A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anything that exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worth significantly more than the highest Goldmine book value.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
Generally worth 50 percent of the Near Mint value. A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable.
Very Good (VG)
Generally worth 25 percent of Near Mint value. Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price. This, not the Near Mint price, should be your guide when determining how much a record is worth, as that is the price a dealer will normally pay you for a Near Mint record.
Good (G), Good Plus (G+)
Generally worth 10-15 percent of the Near Mint value. Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. It is a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade.
Poor (P), Fair (F)
Generally worth 0-5 percent of the Near Mint price. The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each.
