Description
With The Beatles
Unusual Transitional press
5N/6N
With MT tax code too
ALL COMPLETE WITH THE RARER 'PATENTS APPLIED' FOR EMITEX INNER
This was the Beatles' second official release, following their hugely popular Please Please Me. This record was released on the 30th November 1963 and went to the number 1 position (knocking of their own Please Please Me lp) on the 7th of December. Staying at number 1 for 21 weeks! As a little note: they had already sold 250,000 copies before the release and so accepted a silver disc BEFORE release!

Vinyl:
Quality Heavyweight Vinyl: 163g
EX.
There are only a couple of very light marks/scuffs which DO NOT make her jump or skip...I have just listened to the WHOLE record without a problem...Still provides quality clean and clear audio via this quality heavyweight slab of original '60s vinyl!!
NO JUMPS OR STICKS
QUIET INBETWEEN TRACKS
**QUALITY AUDIO**
Flat, heavy and shiny original vinyl.
Labels:
EX+.
There are just very light spindle marks, visible only when angled towards the light and looking for them.
Outer text "The Parlophone Co." No "Sold In" text.
"MT" tax code side 1.
******************
(This is an unusual tax code for this lp as the MT tax code was used from January 1963 only until the 1st of June 1963...a very short running indeed and as this record was released in November 1963 it is a very unusual label indeed!)

Wonderfully strong spine.
NO SPLITS TO THE SEAMS!
NO WRITING
STRONG SPINE

SOLID

EX.
It is the correct "USE EMITEX" tracing paper lined inner...with the early "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" text to the bottom left corner on one side.
NO SPLITS
Just light age discolouration-a bit like me :)
*WOULD FRAME WELL*
SO folks...If you want an increasingly rare pressing of this iconic album, in decent solid condition-this is the one..It is not top of the range, but it is also more than a filler.
