WE ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPING TO SAVE YOU MONEY AND WE ALWAYS SHIP WITH TRACKING. YOUR SATISFACTION IS OUR FIRST PRIORITY!
From Capitol Records (ST-2309), this is THE EARLY BEATLES by
JOHN, PAUL, GEORGE & RINGO, an original pressing from
22 March 1965, in beautiful condition. The jacket is sturdy with absolutely no issues
except one: a young Beatles' fan, Michelle, has written her name in small letters top
front cover, o/w the cover rates a solid NEAR MINT (please see photos).
The original inner sleeve is NEAR MINT MINUS showing a promo hole bottom left,
no tears, creases, warping or any of the other bad things that can happen to paper.
Note: Though the inner sleeve has a promo hole (not cut-out), the jacket shows no
similar drill nor any other indication that this piece might have been a promotional album.
Now we come to the pièce de résistance, the LP. No spindle marks are present and the
playing surfaces are scratch free (no scratches!) making this baby at least NEAR MINT.
Overall, one of the finest examples of this album we've seen in decades.
We have preserved each item separately in protective bags (the LP in separate
jacket) for shipping and for your long-term storage needs at home.
Bid with confidence as we have the best return policy on eBay and invite you to read
our feedback. Good luck bidders and above all please have fun!
