The vinyl displays many visible light surface marks and a couple of light hairlines/nicks, but plays without major problems, the occasional "pop" only.
Due to the overwhelming demand for Beatles 45s throughout their career, Parlophone (who pressed APPLE records usually) found themselves forced to contract out the manufacture of their 45s. Such contracts typically went to Decca, Pye and, in this case, Philips.
That said, how do we identify a PHILIPS pressing? Well, cast a glance at the centre piece, and, in particular at the "PRONGS" between it and the record "body". PHILIPS pressings have 3 prongs, unlike the usual 4 prongs of Parlophone/APPLE (see below).
