The Beatles for Sale by the Beatles.

UK mono first pressing from the to the best of my knowledge.

PMC 1240

XEX 503 3N/XEX 504 4N

Firstly, the record:

Visually very nice indeed. Both labels are clean & unmarked with very little spindle wear. A very light scuff or two on either side (the worst of which I have pictured) but nothing offensive. Looks like a seldom played & handled disk.

Sounds magnificent from beginning to end with no significant deterioration in sound.

Secondly, the sleeve:

Generally of the same standard. None of the usual hinge/spine wear often found on these cheaply produced gatefolds. Truly of time warp quality. The pictures tell a thousand words.

The emitex inner sleeve is original & in completely unmolested condition too.

Further notes:

KT tax code on side B.

No full stop after NCB for track B6.

In summary- a great sought after first press at an increasingly rare starting price. I can't imagine you'll want to upgrade it. This little beauty will gather value in the post!!

More Beatles to be listed in the next 24 hours.

Offers welcome.

I post promptly and securely second class to keep costs down and I sometimes use recycled packaging.

Polite disclaimer:

If you don't have the means to pay for a bid within 48 hours of sale then please let me know before bidding.

Also if you intend making an offer but you have further questions about the items for sale, then you should ask them *prior to making that offer. By making an offer you are committed to the sale should the retailer accept it as per eBay terms and conditions. Sorry to have to mention this but I've suffered some frankly rotten buying etiquette recently.

Domestic or GSP buyers only please.

Check out my feedback, bid with confidence, & thanks for looking
