LOVE ME DO UK - 1st pressing - 1962  
AUCTION ONLY - HIGHEST BID WINS - THANK YOU
Please note: Depending upon where you live, ebay might automatically add import duty to your winning bid.  
THE DISC
Here is an early copy featuring several label errors, corrected on later issues. There is no 'Made In Gt. Britain' text under the Trade Mark sign; the Lennon-McCartney credits are not centrally aligned under Love Me Do and there is a missing closing bracket after McCartney on side 2. 
Side One: 7XCE 17144-1N    Stamper: 1(PZT)-GM         Side Two: 7XCE 17145-1N    Stamper: 1(PZT)-GR 
AUDIO - EX
Crystal clear sound quality with no unwanted intrusions!  The run ins/outs are near silent. It is almost impossible to find an original copy that plays this good.

VISUALLY - EX-   The vinyl surfaces have retained most of their original gloss finish. There are some light lines, caused by careless handling rather than actual needle damage. Although the disc has been played and enjoyed, it has obviously been on decent equipment and generally looked after. It would be very difficult to find another original copy in such good condition.
The labels are in fantastic condition and have retained all of their vibrant colour and silver text. There is no damage or unwanted writing, so often found on red label copies. PT tax code is embossed on the side 2 centre.
If you see any chevrons on the enlarged images, these are from the camera and are not on the vinyl.    
  =====================================================================================
THE SLEEVE- VG+
Genuine original in good condition. There are no seam splits, just age toning/creasing. There is a shop stamp on both sides from a Southampton record retailer, long since gone. Shirley is a district of Southampton, obviously very much still in existence. 
  ======================================================================

The photos are of the actual item. I always use professional, anti-static, cleaning fluid and listen to the whole disc. Professional mailers are always used. I will combine postage for two or more items, so please wait for me to invoice you before you pay. Thanks! 
I have more Beatles records listed right now, so please take a look.
