PLEASE READ FIRST!

I'm having to make this even clearer as people are still buying records I'm grading low and as a 'collection filler', and then complain about the audio quality when they try to play them. As I do not own a record player I VISUALLY GRADE my records, so I cannot guarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).

All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.

THE BEATLES
From Me To You / Thank You Girl

Mega Rare 2nd Type Press with 'Northern Songs Ltd' on 3 Lines!

On offer here is an exceptionally rare copy of the Beatles single From Me To You / Thank You Girl on the UK Parlophone label.

This is the 2nd type press where the 'Northern Songs Ltd' credit has been split into 3 lines rather than just 2.

Please do not under-estimate just how rare these copies are. If you go through every single copy of this single currently up for sale on eBay you will most likely not find another. These were only pressed in tiny, tiny, limited quantities and this is the first time in my many years of collecting Beatle records that I have ever seen one! These are so much harder to find than a gold label or 'extra 33 1/3' Please Please Me, black label Love Me Do etc (these are sold due to their high rarity factors but you'll always find at least one up for sale at any given time).

Not only this, but this copy is in a really nice, clean condition. The huge, vast majority of copies of this single turn up pretty trashed after 50+ years of poor storage and continual playing. It's extremely hard to find any copy of this single in such a clean condition, let alone one which features this incredibly rare and never seen label variation!

Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

All records have been 
visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.

Records are posted out tracked and insured (where applicable) to comply with eBay and PayPal seller protection policy.

The P+P costs given on each auction are for that auction only. If you win more than one auction please wait until I've
sent you out an amended invoice to combine postage.

All LPs will be mailed out in a strong, corrugated cardboard LP mailing box with the LP outside the sleeve and extra
sheets of corrugated cardboard will be used where applicable.

My Vinyl Grading:

MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
