The BEATLES 45, SIPER-RARITY single from SWEDEN, I believe it’s an early press from Sweden, with Thin font song titles, incorrect Lennon-McCartney song credit on B Side, and standard “boxed” NCB indicator on both sides. But it’s on APPLE labels, 1969, one of only 4 countries, all from Scandinavia, to release this 45 record. The A Side, BACK IN THE USSR is Common, available from 12 countries!! The B Side, DON’T PASS ME BY, Super-Rare as a Single, was not released on 45 in US or UK, only from Scandinavia!! BOTH SONGS ARE FROM THE 1968 “WHITE ALBUM”. Several countries released more Beatles Singles than the US, so Beatles Singles from Japan, Philippines, Costa Rica, Greece, Mexico, and India are all quite Collectable, so there are many Beatles songs NOT released on 45 in US or UK!! In fact, all 225 Beatles songs, except 12, are available on a 45 Single or 45 EP somewhere Worldwide!!! This record Goldmine condition is VG+ on this record rarity! My second highest grade! Mostly shiny but has more minor scuffs and marks than an EX, but no scratches effecting play. BOTH SIDES PLAY THRU GREAT and the music is loud anyway, both sides!!! And nice clean labels, No writing! Missing its centerpiece!! SUPER nice considering most Records from 1969 are quite worn and older looking! For me NM is for Still Sealed records!! 1) EX means EXCELLENT vinyl, no need to search for a better copy!! Proud to own! 2) VG+ means fully Collectable, mostly shiny, Worth Saving, till an EX comes along!! 3) VG, Scuffed but playable and rare enough that it cannot be found in better shape! 4). VG-, I won’t sell these unless extra rare and I would buy it just to have it! Very scuffed but still plays thru! MOST OF THESE INTERNATIONAL BEATLES SINGLES ARE SUPER HARD TO FIND, IN EX, MANY ARE QUITE RARE, ESPECIALLY THE ONES WITH RARE SONG COMBINATIONS. I’ve only seen this one about TWICE a year on EBay, and rarely EX!! These old 60s singles were made tough to hold up to high humidity and lots of wear and tear. Both songs are MONO from Sweden, Norway, and Finland!! BUT IN AMAZING STEREO FROM DENMARK!!! If you can find it!!! My original search was for ALL Beatles songs on 45 SP or 45 EP. Turns out all but 12 are!!! DON’T PASS ME BY is Number 61 on my Beatles HTF worldwide singles list!
