The Beatles Please Please Me PMC 1202 Mono Black & Gold Label
Condition - The vinyl is good +. Please read on... Original issue with Dick James credits etc. Fully play-tested and it plays remarkably well apart from light crackle throughout which seemed a bit louder on Twist and Shout. None of clicks are to the fore of sound. I listened through thoroughly and there were no loud pops whatsoever. Just light crackle. Aesthetically the vinyl has a few light hairlines, but not many. The cover is very good, or slightly better. This originally came from the collection of a BBC radio DJ. He lived in Liverpool during his youth and used to see the Beatles at the Cavern back in the early days when Pete Best was the drummer. This album would have come direct from a Liverpool record shop at the time of release. Pretty cool, huh?! See photos for more details!
Above is my honest assessment of the record condition. I think I'm spot on here. Some tell me I under-rate my record sales compared to other sellers.
Matrixes: XEX 421-1N XEX 422-1N
Matrix / Runout (Mothers & Stampers side 1/2, stamped): 1 P / 1 L
All of my LPs are sent in Defenda record protective packaging. The sleeve is removed from the cover to stop any cover damage during transit.
Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
