DESCRIPTION:   HARD TO FIND, THIS IS A MONO COPY OF THEIR FIRST US ALBUM ON VEE JAY RECORDS FROM 1964.  "MEET THE BEATLES" ON CAPITOL WAS RELEASED TEN DAYS LATER.  THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC COPY, WITH BOTH "THE BEATLES" AND "INTRODUCING THE BEATLES" ABOVE THE SPINDLE HOLE.  DEEP GROOVE LABEL (SMALL INDENTATION ABOUT 3/4" IN FROM THE EDGE OF LABEL), RAINBOW COLORING BORDER AROUND THE LABEL IS CRISP AND HAS CLEAR COLORS UNLIKE THE FAKE COPIES OUT THERE.  MICROGROOVE AND LONGPLAYING ARE LISTED ON LABEL.   AND YES, GEORGE HAS A SHADOW ON THE FRONT COVER.  THE RECORD LOOKS GREAT.  THERE IS SOME SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING MAJOR, STILL PLENTY OF SHINE.  MOSTLY SUPERFICIAL SLEEVE SCUFF MARKS WITH A FEW LIGHT NEEDLE MARKS.  I PLAY TESTED SEVERAL SPOTS ON THE ALBUM AND IT SOUNDED GREAT. A LITTLE BACKGROUND NOISE BETWEEN SONGS AND IN QUITER SECTIONS.  THIS IS THE VERSION WITH SONGS "ASK ME WHY" AND "PLEASE PLEASE ME" ON COVER AND RECORD.  BRACKET LOGO COPY. THE COVER IS BETTER THAN MOST I SEE, THERE ARE SOME BLACK PEN MARKS ON THE FRONT COVER (SEVERAL, SEE PHOTO), SOME MODERATE SPOTS OF FLAKING ON SECTIONS OF TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, A 3" SPLIT ON BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER.  SPINE LOOKS OK, TOP SECTION WHERE IT SAYS "VEE JAY" IS SCUFFED, BUT TITLE LOOKS GREAT AND IS FULLY READABLE.  BACK COVER HAS SOME SURFACE WEAR, NOT TOO BAD.  OVERALL MODERATE CORNER WEAR.  STILL A CLEAN COPY.  CLEANER THAN MOST I SEE.  
CONDITION:  MINT (SEALED, NEAR MINT, NM-/VG++, VG+, VG, GOOD, FAIR, POOR
