*************************************************

NATURALLY THE DISC HAS THE EARLIEST YELLOW/BLACK LABELS-LATER ONES HAD SILVER/BLACK LABELS AS WELL AS THE "SOLD IN THE UK" TEXT AS ON LATER REPRINTS.

JUDGING BY THE SPINDLE WEAR(I DO NOT "INK IN" LIKE MANY DEALERS!)-THIS COPY HAS HAD QUITE A BIT OF USE WITH SOME VISUAL LARGE BUT LIGHT SURFACE MARKS BUT APART FROM A FEW ISOLATED "POPS" I COULDN'T HEAR ANY LOUD CLICKS! ALSO NO STICKS OR JUMPS! VERY MINIMAL SURFACE CRACKLE! THERE IS SOME SLIGHT DISTORTION AT SOME OF THE SOUND PEAKS WHEN LISTENING AS I DO WITH THE TREBLE FULLY ON AND AT HIGH VOLUME.  STRICTLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD+++ CONDITION BUT IT PLAYS THROUGH REALLY WELL! WAY,WAY BETTER THAN MOST DEALERS "VG" BUT TO GET A NEAR MINT EXAMPLE IS TOUGH AND EXPENSIVE! EMI'S MASTERING AND DEEP CUT LOUD AND BASS FILLED,THICK VINYL WAS VERY HARDY AT THIS TIME RATHER THAN THE LATER WAFER THIN REPRESSES OFTEN CUT AT A LOWER VOLUME AND AS SUCH THE "BLINDFOLD" TEST WOULD MERIT A HIGHER GRADE BUT I WANT THE WINNING BIDDER TO CONSIDER IT "BETTER THAN EXPECTED". 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. HOUSED IN A LAMINATED FRONT+FLIPBACK COVER WITH A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES AND A 5CM TEAR FROM THE FRONT RIGHT HAND SIDE-HALF WAY DOWN AND SOME MILD STAINING AT THE BACK BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS-STILL VERY PRESENTABLE. PLEASE NOTE DUE TO THE SHINY BLACK OF THE FRONT COVER THERE IS SOME "GLARE" REFLECTION RATHER THAN FRONT COVER STAINS.  1963 UK EMI PRESSED PARLOPHONE PMC 1206-VERY THICK AND 100% FLAT VINYL.

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 HAS HAD A NUMBER OF PLAYS BUT STILL SOUNDING VERY NICE!

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 A VERY NICE COPY AND IDEAL IF YOU ARE ON A STRICT BUDGET CONSTANTLY OUTBIDDED BY HIGHER PRICED BETTER CONDITION COPIES BUT MAKE NO MISTAKE THIS IS NOT A TRASHED AND THRASHED COPY!

A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE FOR THIS IMPORTANT PART OF ANY BEATLES COLLECTION!

YOU'LL LOVE IT FOR YEARS AND HOPEFULLY WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN!   

SUPERB MONO SOUND PLUS THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF THE BASS THAT CANNOT BE MATCHED ON CD!!

The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.

 I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.
