A genuine 1st mono from 1964. Matrix 3N/3N - 1st cut. Stampers 3MR/1R. Note that absolute 1st press is identifiable by the wide-body chubby font employed on these labels. Labels mention 'Parlophone' and 'recording 1st pub' - indicative of 1st press. The heavy-set vinyl comes housed in an original Ernest J Day cover with the Emitex inner sleeve. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex/Ex+) In superb condition and has only seen light use. I could only make out a couple of lightest marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a mostly EXCELLENT+ level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are really quiet and the audio comes across with superb clarity. This is a perfect player and handles upbeat numbers with aplomb and the quiet numbers easily with barely a whiff of background. Given that this copy is close onto the initial masters you will be witnessing a really early copy of this famous title. And you can certainly hear the clarity in these earliest copies. It's a super clean player - throughout. Expect just a couple of crackles in a couple of isolated spots per side. Highly recommended!
Cover (Vg+) These '64 covers can end up looking a bit tired by this point in time - but this one is still looking very fine. A lovely clean looking front with just one slight scuff mark down toward the foot. The rear has escaped the worst of the usual ageing process - but some is in evidence over toward the opening. There's hardly any edge wear and the openings are still firm. Flipbacks are all intact and secure. The spine is 100% intact. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity.
Inner (Vg+) lightly aged. No splits.
