BEATLEMANIACS! We've purchased a HUGE BEATLES COLLECTION (nearly a THOUSAND items!), and we'll be listing Fab Four collectibles as fast as time allows...so add us to your favorite sellers list, and keep an eye on our buy-it-now bargains and rare auction finds! Here's today's GEAR listing:
YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY/I'VE JUST SEEN A FACE (Capitol 18889 "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!" GOLD vinyl CEMA Special Markets 45, 1996): UNPLAYED MINT gem w/jukestrip.
Although this is a "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY" release, it will play on any 45RPM record player...
Previously unreleased 45! There's only 11 titles, out of the 29 colored vinyl 1994-1996 CEMA Special Markets Beatles singles, that hadn't already been issued as 45s. These singles are the most highly sought-after in the series. While My Guitar Gently Weeps on blue vinyl and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds on red vinyl are among the scarcest, and so is You've Got To Hide Your Love Away/I've Just Seen A Face on gold vinyl. Watch
for these rare 45s to zoom to higher levels as U.S. collectors
celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' 1st visit to America.
Here's one of the rarest of the rare; it's UNPLAYED MINT with its jukebox title strip! All the CEMA Special Markets "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!" singles are escalating in price:
The Capitol colored vinyl 45s are the rarest stock-copy Beatles singles ever released in the U.S.; there were between 10,000-20,000 copies pressed of each "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!" 45. This was a sign of the times; by the mid-nineties the era of the 45RPM record seemed to be over. Juke-jobbers, for whom the series was created, had already moved to CD jukeboxes. They didn't want the records, so Capitol sold them to chain stores and mail-order companies just to get rid of them. The rarity of the 30 colored vinyl Beatles 45s is impressive compared to the countless millions of '60s orange-and-yellow swirls and the immense flood of orange, blue, and purple-label reissues of the '70s and '80s. The entire series includes eleven singles that had never before appeared as U.S. 45s (like this one) and two others with alternate flip sides. This is one of those ultimate rarities. It's been 19 years since Capitol released the last of these beautiful records, and rapidly-increasing values reflect their scarcity.
