Description
ATTENTION BEATLES COLLECTORS!
HERE'S A 1973 FRENCH STEREO REPRESSING COPY OF THE BEATLES:"YELLOW SUBMARINE"ALBUM. THIS PRESSING HAS THE SAME CATALOGUE NUMBER TO THE UK (PCS 7070) HOWEVER THE LABELS HAVE THE PATHE MARCONI AND MADE IN FRANCE TEXT AND THERE IS ALSO A "FACTORY SAMPLE"STICKER ON THE"B"SIDE LABEL!
THERE WOULD BE A SMALL NUMBER OF EARLY PRESSINGS HELD BACK BEFORE DISTRIBUTION TO THE RECORD SHOPS TO BE TESTED AT THE EMI FACTORY OR TO BE KEPT TO BE GIVEN TO EMI STAFF OR IMPORTANT VISITORS-ALSO SOMETIMES SENT OUT TO DJs TO REMIND THEM THAT THE ALBUM WA STILL IN PRINT!
IN 1973 THERE WERE LOTS OF SHORTAGES DUE TO STRIKES AND THE "OIL CRISIS"HENCE THE NEED FOR THE FRENCH PRESSINGS.
ANOTHER FASCINATING VARIATION IS THE UK PRINTED COVER WHICH HAS THE MADE IN FRANCE STICKER STILL ADDED-MOST UK BUYERS WOULD HAVE PEELED THEM OFF!
ADD TO THAT THE COVER STILL HAS THE CATALOGUE NUMBERS AT THE BOTTOM FOR BOTH MONO AND STEREO EDITIONS WHICH IS ODD AS THE MONO VERSIONS WERE DELETED BEFORE THIS 1973 FRENCH PRESSING! POSSIBLY OLDER PRINTED COVERS WERE USED WHEN THE FRENCH VINYL WAS SENT OVER OR SIMPLY A PRINTING ERROR! ALL THIS ADDS TO A FANTASTIC ITEM FOR ANY BEATLES COLLECTOR TO CONSIDER OWNING! THE LP IS HOUSED IN A PLAIN BLACK INNER SLEEVE. THE LP IS A STRICTLY GRADED NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION EXAMPLE WITH SOME LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE BUT NO STICKS OR JUMPS. AN IDEAL COPY TO PLAY AND ENJOY IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD AN ORIGINAL BUT STILL WOULD LIKE A VINTAGE COPY MADE WITHIN THE EARLY 1970s-POSSIBLY FOR A COLLECTOR ON A BUDGET!
YOUNGER COLLECTORS WHO ARE NEW TO BUYING CLASSIC VINYL ALBUMS COULD DO A LOT WORSE BY STARTING WITH THIS ONE!
WELL WORTH MY MODEST LOW STARTING PRICE OF £12 WITH NO RESERVE!
A LAMINATED FRONT COVER THAT HAS A FEW EDGE CREASES AND A LITTLE FAINT STAINING AT THE BACK BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.
The vast majority of copies sold of this album were often played on poor equipment,in many cases taken to parties,not well cared for with no long term investment in mind!
An ideal opportunity to add an ESSENTIAL album in nice condition to your collection that is bound to rise in value!
I WILL PACK THIS VERY CAREFULLY.UK POSTAGE £4 INCLUDING 1ST CLASS RECORDED DELIVERY. £6 EUROPE AND £9 REST OF THE WORLD.
