Welcome to the next batch from my extensive collection to look for new homes, starting with the holy grail for Beatles collectors. Here is a first press of the Beatles first album Please Please Me. Released in 1963 on the Parlophone label PMC1202. Please read the full description and check the photos prior to bidding.
The sleeve is in very good condition, some little bits of edge and corner wear but nothing drastic. Light ring wear and couple of pencil marks to the rear, has the Angus Bean photo credit and Ernest J. Day sleeve credit. Original Emitex poly inner just a small bit missing and small tear on centre ring. Vinyl has had a hard life, plenty of scuffs and marks, pops and crackles. Plays through ok with the exception of the title track which jumps a couple of times, may well clean up better if you have one of those expensive cleaning machines. It is certainly listenable for the most part as the music overpowers the vast majority of background noise. XEX 421-1N , XEX 422-1N matrix codes,appears to be a letter O at 3 o'clock. Labels have a couple of scuffs and fading but overall good condition, and have all the correct Dick James credits. I'm putting this on a 7 day auction let's see where it goes........ bearing in mind in excellent condition these go for well over £1000 these days.

I am conservatively under grading these listings, but all have been play tested using Sennheiser dynamic head phones and all items listed play through with no skips or jumps and minimal background noise, that does not interfere with the music at normal volumes. Any exceptions to this will be noted, the pictures were taken on a high definition camera that form part of the description so please check and ask if not sure. Please ask me about any individual item before making a purchase.
The make offer button is there, feel free to make an offer on any item, at worst I will say no.
