The Beatles - Help! Mono One EMI box PMC 1255 - Ultra rare
This is supposedly the Beatles' second rarest ever Lp after the first Stereo Gold, this is at the opposite end of the spectrum and was the last ever Mono pressing of Help on the One EMI box labels in 1969. To be honest this is actually the rarest Lp to get as I see Gold Stereo's all the time on eBay, not so with this Pressing.
Only a handful were released and probably by mail order only as EMI had all but abandoned Mono by this point.
Only Help, Please please me and Sgt Pepper were released on this special label and Help is by far the hardest to get.
Ok, condition visually is probably Good plus / very good -, but it does play through without any jumps or skips and generally without hiss or static as these were pressed on the last of the thick vinyl so many marks are just superficial - Not that you should play ultra rare albums anyway! :0
Generally pushing 2k+ for a NM one (If they ever come up), this may be a chance to own one for a while without breaking the bank.
This is the only one I've ever had the pleasure of owning (I also have the other 2 mono 1 boxes), but time now to let go.
Comes complete with a nice cover and correct inner in Ex
If you want the set, I'll be listing the PPM & Sgt. Peppers versions shortly..
Please see my other auctions, past and present.
Usual methods, but will accept time payments for some of the bigger things. Please ask.
Shipping by FedEx Insured, Tracked Intl Priority when available.
I accept returns for all things except where stated clearly. Thank you
I am and have always considered myself a Beatlefreak and collector. I am not a dealer, but have many treasures I've collected over the years that I have now decided to part with.
