Item Description

 

Beatles - Please Please Me - Mono - Black and Gold

Matrices: XEX 421-1N; XEX 422-1N

Version 'B'; Northern Songs credits.

 

A stunning album, lovingly cared for;

it plays through as if pressed yesterday; no clicks, no jumps; just excellent sound throughout.

 

Record Collector based gradings;

 

The SLEEVE is an Excellent/VGC; minor creasings to front laminate, noticably top corner,

with small corner wear resulting in minor lesions, visible close-up.

The sleeve rear is a touch grubby, with visible ring wear, but is solid and carries no writing.

Spine excellent, writing intact.

Inner sleeve in good order.

 

The VINYL - appraised strictly and conservatively - is Excellent+/Excellent, with sound quality suggestive of Near Mint. 

The Minimal wear is entirely superficial and inaudible.

Side 1 carries a few very light hairlines, visible in bright daylight. Side 2 carries a few very light hairlines, one hairline I

would grade as light, and a solitary light surface scuff.

Away from windows/lights, the wear is not visible. Otherwise pristine, it retains

a beautiful sheen, and surpasses all expectations usually associated with a record of this age.

 

The LABEL carries an absolute minimum of spindle wear.

 

Overall, a stunning example; there will be very few better.

 

I will send this worldwide, with P&P cost to include insurance. Record will be packaged supremely,

vinyl and sleeve separately. I won't accept returns, in case of accidental damage by postal system

or new owner, but will be happy to invite viewings at my home in Worcestershire. An example of

sound quality may be possible to send electronically; or perhaps through Skype; although i've tried neither yet.
