Very nice original (not the 1994 reproduction) "I Want To Hold Your Hand" and "I Saw Her Standing There" Capitol # 5112 picture sleeve and w/ single.  This copy is visually graded at VG++ (sleeve) and G (record) using the Cox/Daniels "Price Guide For The Beatles American Records" grading standards (6th edition).  See my photos.  No tears in the sleeve's seams or edges, no writing on the sleeve, however there is some minor corner creasing and 2 small pin holes where a staple existed from the original record store (done to hold the record in the sleeve).

Spizer version CAP 5112.02B (record) and 5112.PS1A (sleeve).  Nice addition to any Beatles record collection.  This is the original 1964 sleeve (not the 1994 re-release).. the difference being the original 1964 has Paul holding a cigarette and there are no periods in the text below the Capitol logo.

Original orange/yellow swirl Capitol label with NO "Subsidiary of Capitol Industries.. " text and manufactured at Capitol's LA plant.  A side pub credit is Duchess Music Corporation and B side pub credit is George Pincus & Sons Music Corp.  The record has been well played (thus, the "G" condition) with some writing on A side label.  The record is not in great condition, obviously, but the sale is really for the picture sleeve.  I am just including a copy of this single to make the package complete.

Payment is required within 3 days of the end of the auction.  Please see my other Beatles records on Ebay.
