"With The Beatles"....
EU buyers!!..You will have to pay tax on this..I can do nothing about it.
I am having a mini clear out so have a look at my other items for sale.
Their second album..This has "Parlophone"label text and "Money" is credited to Dominion,Belinda...It has MT Tax codes just visible on the A side centre label..The Matrix numbers are 7N/7N....The mothers and stampers are 37(?) GRG and 3 GAD..The mothers and stampers don't really give much info with this album.....With over 500,000 advance orders for this album,EMI must have been running LOADS of presses all at the same time to meet this demand..Each press would be using a different mother and the stampers must have been getting worn out pretty quickly!..
Issued on Parlophone in 1963..PMC 1206..UK pressing in Mono..Garrod and Lofthouse front laminated sleeve.
To the naked eye,the record looks at least VG+ (if not better)..Strong light reveals some more hairlines and light scuffs...However both sides play REALLY well..There are a couple of tiny clicks,but no loud ones or constant ones..The sound quality is clean and undistorted....No edge warps either...So..VG visually..Play grade EX..I think that's a fair and accurate judgement!...Played on a JVC deck with a Shure tracking at 2g..
The labels are undamaged and the text is untarnished..There is visible spindle wear and the edges of the centre hole are worn white..
The sleeve has some issues...Light ringwear and a few light laminate creases..A small ding to the bottom front edge...Rounded corners..Heavy age discolouring to the back...The spine flipback is cracked and there is staining along the opening edge...The spine has a visible central seam split..
The Emitex inner is a bit creased and has a small seam split to one edge....
So,there we are...I hope that with the pictures and description,you get a good idea of what's on offer..If you have any questions just ask!
