ATTENTION SERIOUS BEATLES COLLECTORS! SELECTED FROM MY OWN COLLECTION TO BE APPRECIATED AS A HIGHLIGHT IN ANY SERIOUS COLLECTION OF RARE BEATLES RECORDS.

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1963 VERY SHORT LIVED"GOLD PRINT"LABELS MONO EDITION OF THE FAMOUS GROUND BREAKING DEBUT ALBUM:"PLEASE PLEASE ME" RECORDED 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK-THIS COPY BEING ONE OF THE FIRST FROM MARCH 1963,THE MONTH IT WAS ISSUED WITH THE MAJORITY OF COPIES BEING REPRESSED ON THE YELLOW/BLACK LABELS FROM JUST A FEW WEEKS LATER. THE OLDER STYLE LABEL DESIGN WAS BEING PHASED OUT THE SAME MONTH OF THE BEATLES ALBUM'S DEBUT.IT HAD BEEN USED ON ALL PARLOPHONE ALBUMS SINCE 1953.THERE WERE TWO VERSIONS WITH ALTERNATIVE PUBLISHING CREDITS. BOTH WERE MADE WITHIN A WEEK OF EACH OTHER AND AS SUCH ARE OF EQUAL RARITY.NATURALLY ANY SERIOUS BEATLES COLLECTOR WILL WANT TO OWN BOTH VARIATIONS.THIS ONE IS THE SECOND VERSION WITH DICK JAMES CREDITS FOR "ASK ME WHY"and"PLEASE PLEASE ME"WITH NORTHERN SONGS CREDITS FOR FOUR OTHER TRACKS. UNLIKE MOST COPIES THAT TURN UP,THESE LABELS ARE VERY CLEAN-JUST A LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR BUT NO WRITING,NO FADING,NO STAINING,NO MARKINGS etc. SEE MY PHOTOS TO SEE THE VIBRANT PRINT-INCLUDING CLOSE UPS OF BOTH TRACK LISTINGS. THEY HAVE A LOVELY SHEEN TO THEM AND NO NASTY CIGARETTE SMELL EITHER! 

IT HAS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1N/1N MATRIXES! MOST HAVE FAR LATER ONES! ALSO THE PARLOPHONE CO.LTD.RIM TEXT.THE DISC IS 100% FLAT WITH THICK VINYL. THE DISC HAS HAD A NUMBER OF PLAYS WITH SOME VISUAL SURFACE MARKS-THE LIGHT HAIRLINE TYPE,CLEANING TYPE BUT HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE-EVEN IN BETWEEN THE TRACKS! THERE ARE NO CLICKS, STICKS OR JUMPS! NO MAJOR DISTORTION-THERE IS A LITTLE AT A FEW OF THE SOUND PEAKS DUE TO A NUMBER OF PLAYS AS WITH MOST COPIES BUT THIS IS LISTENING AS I DO WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO HEAR IT AT IT'S WORSE POSSIBLE. STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION DUE TO THE AFOREMENTIONED LIGHT SURFACE MARKS BUT PLEASE CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR STRICT GRADING REPORTS ON MANY BEATLES ALBUMS! UNLIKE OTHER SELLERS, I PLAY ALL MY EBAY ITEMS THROUGH TO ENSURE REALISTIC GRADINGS SO PLEASE BID WITH 100% CONFIDENCE FOR A VERY NICE SOUNDING COPY.            

HOUSED IN A LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH SOME MINOR CREASES AND SOME STAINING AT THE BACK BUT NO REPAIRS.A TINY BIRO NAME AT THE BACK JUST BELOW THE TOP FLIPBACK.THERE IS A LITTLE EDGE AND CORNER WEAR BUT VERY PRESENTABLE! PRINTED BY ERNEST J.DAY.EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS-MOST ARE WORN AWAY-NOT THIS ONE! THE ANGUS McBEAN PHOTO CREDIT IS AT THE FRONT UNDER THE"S"IN SONGS.

IT INCLUDES THE CORRECT AND ORIGINAL POLYLINED EMITEX  INNER SLEEVE THAT HAS THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR"TEXT.

THERE ARE 12 DIFFERENT PHOTOS TO STUDY!

A REALISTIC £300 STARTING PRICE-NO RESERVE BUT EXPECT KEEN INTEREST IN THIS IMPORTANT ADDITION TO ANY BEATLES COLLECTION WHICH I HAVE ENJOYED OWNING FOR OVER 20 YEARS BOUGHT FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER WHO BOUGHT IT IN LONDON WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF ISSUE! JUST TWO OWNERS IN 50 YEARS AND YOU COULD HAVE THIS READY TO PLAY ON THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE RECORDS ACTUAL RELEASE AT THE END OF MARCH!

MOST COPIES SOLD 50 YEARS AGO IN 1963 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT, SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE IS BETTER THAN MOST WITH SOME USE BUT NOT MAJOR ABUSE!PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS,THE SPINE AND INNER"PATENTS PENDING"CREDIT.

NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!

MOST WILL REMAIN ON COLLECTORS SHELVES!

 THIS IS A LOVELY THICK,FLAT PRESSING!

GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH  WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!

THE MONO MIXES OF THIS ALBUM ARE DIFFERENT TO THE STEREO ONES AND MOST BEATLES COLLECTORS WILL WANT TO OWN BOTH BUT OF COURSE THE MAJORITY OF MONO COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE NOT VERY GOOD AT ALL-THIS BEING AN EXCEPTION-SO DON'T MISS OUT!
