Description

Hi, I'm a rookie seller in my third month here...next up....

I was at an auction the other day and among all the junk in a box of LP's was "Introducing The Beatles"
Needless to say, I stuck it in the middle of the box hoping nobody else would see it:)

The cover is a bit rough...as you can see somebody wrote .50 cents on it...
But the record itself plays very clean!!!

By all accounts, according to many of the points to look for from the RareBeatles site and others this is a VJ 1062 (2).MR4A...
Lets count'em off..
1) Mono (the photo is cropped below Pauls hands)
2) VJ block logo
3) Silver on Black
4) "SIDE" (all caps)
5) Labels have "THE BEATLES" and the title "INTRODUCING THE BEATLES" above the center hole.
6) The vinyl trail-off -the gap between the end of the last track and the edge of the label usually measures from 7/8" to 1" wide, but never greater.
(this one is 7/8's)
7) On side one the trail off markings are... beginning with a triangle symbol, then 6307 X...followed by a circular symbol which looks like it was scratched out (I read somewhere that could be the Monarch symbol scratched out and pressed by Columbia) then 63-3402...
Side two is the same with the exception of the last number being 63-3403
7) Back cover lists contents in two columns...with Please, Please Me and Ask Me Why.....
8) the colored (white) inner sleeve reads: "THE GREAT GOSPEL ARTISTS ARE ON VJ" "OTHER FINE ALBUMS OF SIGNIFICANT INTEREST"
9) George's shadow on the Cover...

Since everybody grades a bit differently, here's my recording of "Introducing The Beatles" Side One that I'm looking to sell...

Fyi..to get the song to DivShare.. I play the 45 on an OLD record player that also has a cassette recorder. Then I load the song from the cassette on to my pc and then into DivShare.I do this so you can learn about the quality of the record. It may lose a bit of fidelity being dubbed twice to DivShare but you will hear all of the pops and cracks which is the key thing in buying a record online. On your turntable this song will sound great!!!

The album does show some surface marks but as you heard it plays smooth... There was no stopping between tracks. I played it straight through..
The insert does have some goofy stain with a slit on the bottom...

After pic one which shows the entire cover.. pics 2/3/4/5 are upper left, upper right, lower left and lower right... Pics 6/7/8/9 from the back cover are upper left, upper right, lower left and lower right... I'm sure you can figure out the last three photo's...:)

I prefer PayPal and damn near always ship within 24 hours of payment...
Free shipping...US only.
No returns on the record as you've seen all the pics and heard the entire LP...

If you have any questions, fire away
