When his father opened a new NEMS store on Great Charlotte St, Brian Epstein was put in charge of the ground floor, where he expanded from pianos and wireless sets to gramophone records. The new record department was so successful that another NEMS branch was opened at 12-14 Whitechapel, fate also had it that Brian's new NEMS store on Whitechapel was only down the street and around the corner from a dingy, basement club called The Cavern...... Any records bought from the NEM'S store came in plastic protective sleeves. These rare sleeves are now highly collectable and very very sought after.
