Original 1st US Vee-Jay Records VJ-587 picture sleeve with a 7” 45 RPM single “Do You Want to Know a Secret” and “Thank You Girl” which was released on March 23rd, 1964. According to the 1964 chart results the "Do You Want to Know a Secret?" single reached the number two spot behind "Hello, Dolly!" by Louis Armstrong in Billboard and number three on the Cash Box chart, but reached number one for two weeks in the chart published by the Teletheatre Research Institute. In the U.S., it was the most successful Beatles song on which Harrison sang lead vocal until "Something" peaked at No. 1 as part of a double-sided number one hit with "Come Together" in 1969. Original 1st print black picture sleeve with a large yellow “The Beatles” banner and white track titles below it remains record store sealed with a double-sided “Our Price 69¢ Park Records” sticker at the mouth. The sticker is located on the left edge of the mouth and its location allows to slightly open the picture sleeve and make certain that the record inside contains a rare label variation with the Vee-Jay Records oval logo. This picture sleeve can be attributed to the category of sleeves in pristine Mint condition. Just like the other several sealed 45 RPM records currently listed at our auction, this copy comes from a private collection.
