Iconic red Parlophone UK 1st pressing of The Beatles Love Me Do, complete with original candy stripe Parlophone sleeve. 

The vinyl has plenty of hairlines and scuffs but no feelable scratches, and it plays through well with only modest surface noise. I'd give it a VG+ for audio, and a visual grade of Good+. 

The A Side label has some writing on, as pictured, but is otherwise undamaged. The B Side label is in excellent condition. 

Matrix number is 7XCE 17144-1N both sides. The sleeve is in nice condition with no seam splits.

Genuine original Beatles collectable from 1962, sensible start price.
