Description
THE BEATLES "PLEASE PLEASE ME"
VERY FIRST UK 1st Yellow / Black - STEREO PRESS with small " Gold Label" 33/3 .
FORGET The Parlophone STEREO GOLD LABEL, this IS the rarest of the rare..
DEFINITELY THE MOST ESSENTIAL ADDITION TO ANY BEATLES COLLECTION., AND IS WITHOUT DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE AND SOUGHT AFTER OF ALL THE BEATLES VINYL.
WITH ONLY AN EXTREMELY LIMITED NUMBER OF COPIES REPUTED TO HAVE BEEN PRODUCED. THESE ELUSIVE ALBUMS RARELY SURFACE FOR SALE AND THEREFORE DEMAND FOR ANY COPY IS HIGH. MANY CONSIDER THIS VERSION TO BE AS RARE OR EVEN RARER THAN THE BLACK AND GOLD STEREO.
PCS 3042
YEX 94/95-1-1
STAMPERS: 1 P ON SIDE ONE & 1 G ON SIDE 2
THIS MEANS OR HAS BEEN STATED MANY TIMES, THAT IT IS ONE OF THE FIRST 300 PRESSED WHICH IS USUALLY RESERVED FOR GOLD LABEL PRESSINGS?!!?
NO PURCHASE TAX CODE STAMP (SAME AS MY OTHER ONE). IN FACT IT SEEMS ALL THESE FIRST YELLOW / BLACK PARLOPHONE PRESSINGS WITH THE EXTRA GOLD 33 1/3 NEVER CAME WITH A TAX CODE STAMPED ON THE LABEL.
THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS WHICH FEATURE THE SMALL 33/3 ARE IN SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS 1 SPINDLE MARK TO EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH PERFECT LETTERING. BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB... THIS LOOKS LIKE IT HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED. I WOULD SAY TWICE MAXIMUM. THERE ARE NO AUDIO IMPERFECTIONS WHATSOEVER. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING
AUDIO IS STUNNING.... ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF REVEALED A CLEAR AND CRISP PERFORMANCE. AS NEW, THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITH ANY CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS. THE STEREO AUDIO IS STRONG AND VIBRANT AND WAS A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.
THE CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS IN AN EXCELLENT SUPERB CONDITION WITH THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR WORDING".
THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY SLEEVE IS A VERY RARE FIRST ISSUE GOLD SLEEVE WITH THE LARGE STEREO AND ANGUS MCBEAN CREDIT TO THE EXTREME RIGHT. AGAIN IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH JUST NAUTRAL STORAGE WEAR FROM THE LAST 50 YEARS. NO WRITING ANYWHERE.
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUM OF ALL TIME.
