UK Parlophone GEP 8952, 1965, with Drive My Car, Michele, You Won't See Me , Matrix 7TCE 904-1. After finding on-line Parlophone info on Matrix stamping I found that both the A and B sides where stamped with No. 1 Mother discs and Letter "O" A. Side and Letter "P" B. side Stampers. It's not clear how many pressings Parlophone would use a stamper but I have found that typical pressing plants would use a stamper for 300 - 1000 pressings. Based on the Parlophone marking system my pressing was anywhere from the 1,200 to the 5,000 pressing!! For an EP that sold in the 200,000 thousand copy range, I would say this is a very early pressing. I had to look long and hard to find one very light mark on the A. Side vinyl. I see no marks on the B. Side Mint!. Labels Mint- only because of a couple very light spindle marks that you can only see by holding the record at an angle in direct light. Sleeve conservatively graded VG+, from my 30+ years experience buying records most Dealers I have bought from would rate it higher. No rips. splits writing, labels.
VERY NICE!, Some Glare / Reflection in photos.
