4th Pressing 1963!
(2nd pressing on The Yellow and Black Parlophone label)
of the BEATLES 1st Official Album
VINYL
has LIGHT noticable surface markings.
there was TINY "background" noticeable BETWEEN a few tracks on my FOUR speaker HI FI.....(which very well may not be noticeable on a less sensitive music system) also 3 light pops on the track "Misery"
WHOLE ALBUM, BOTH SIDES, ALL TRACKS
PLAYED BRILLIANTLY "near MINT" THROUGHOUT
taking into account the above YES THIS ALBUM ,LIKE ALL MY BEATLES VINYL,HAS BEEN PLAYED BEFORE LISTING AND LISTED AS I HEAR THE ACTUAL ITEM. NO BOOK OR MAGAAZINE LISTING THAT CAN APPLY TO MILLIONS OF RECORDS THIS IS LISTED TRACK FOR TRACK AS IT PLAYED BACK ON MY HI FI.
please see Photographs of ALL THREE actual items-
front AND back of Vinyl, inner and outer sleeves!
Made of the older
HEAVY Vinyl
and built to last.
NOT
GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE
Foldback (Flipback)
Sleeve
BUT HARDER TO FIND ERNEST J. DAY
Front laminated back not.
condition has wear to corners and middle of bottom seam is slightly open. A couple of marks on the back and light age disscolourage on back and opening edge bottom tiny bit open.
AS WITH ALL MY BEATLES ITEMS , ALL THINGS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT WHEN SETTING THE STARTING PRICE
(this is why I presume Ernest sleeves were replaced by the Garrod and Lofthouse ones)
PLEASE SEE PHOTOGRAPHS OF ACTUAL ITEMS.

PHOTOGRAPHS
FOR ALL ABOVE.
PLEASE NOTE NEW OVERSEAS POSTAGE, PACKING AND HANDLING CHARGES.
Due to a few customers SAYING items have not arrived , been “lost” in postal services etc. and Ebays/Pay Pals insistence that they will only credit or believe the items have been sent, when the seller can provide a tracking number, I find myself with no other option than to start sending ALL My Beatles items out with the UK by Royal Mail’s premier International mailing service,
I.e. “Royal Mail International Signed For".
This service costs a MINIMUM of £4.95 ON TOP of the Royal Mail’s Airmail service , packaging and handling costs.
REGARDLESS OF THIS IF YOU SUBTRACT THE EXTRA AS ABOVE, YOU WILL STILL FIND I HAVE ONE OF THEE CHEAPEST POSTAGE HANDLING AND SECURE PACKAGING COST FROM UK TO ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET. NOT ONLY THAT ALL ITEMS ARE POSTED SAME DAY (OR NEXT DAY - IF ITS NIGHT TIME) THAT PAYMENT HAS BEEN RECEIVED. THEREFORE THERE IS NO SAFER OR QUICKER METHOD OF POSTAGE FROM ANY OTHER EBAYER.
This service will provide me, the seller, with assurance that the item did arrive and the tracking number will be used to prove such. It however also provides you , the buyer, with Tracking (within the UK), insurance incase item does actually go missing , priority handling at all stages of it’s journey and signed for on delivery at your door.
N.B. Just one item going “missing” that I have to refund, cost me my profits for a considerable length of time.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND UNDERSTANDING.

A FOOT NOTE FOR LESS EXPERIENCED or NEW BEATLES COLLECTORS;
JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE SELLING SOMETHING ON EBAY QUOTES THE WORD "RARE" 99 TIMES OUT OF A 100 THE ITEM IS NOT RARE, THE SELLER MERELY HOPES IT TO BE RARE AND BY USING THE WORD "RARE" HOPE TO SELL IT TO AN INEXPERIENCED COLLECTOR BY HOODWINKING THEM INTO BELIEVEING IT TO BE "RARE". TAKE MY WORD FOR IT I HAVE LISTED OVER 2000 BEATLES ITEMS ON EBAY SINCE I BEGAN TRADING HERE AND USED THE WORD "RARE" ONCE IN ALL THAT TIME. PLEASE DONT BE BELIEVING A BEATLES ITEM TO BE "RARE" JUST BECAUSE A LISTING USES THIS WORD. THE ITEMS THAT TRULY ARE HARD TO FIND DO NOT NEED TO HOODWINK PEOPLE BECAUSE GENUINE BEATLES TRADERS KNOW WHAT IS WHAT. IT IS REALLY BEGINING TO ANNOY ME THOUGH HOW MUCH PEOPLE ARE USING THE WORD "RARE" WHEN INDEED THE ITEM IS NO WHERE NEAR "RARE" "EXTREMELY RARE" "IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND" ETC ETC.
THANK YOU AND KEEP THE BEATLES ALIVE!
