READ THIS! These records are NOT sold for perfect sound quality. They’re sold for their scarcity and VISUAL grading. They’ve been in storage for a decade, and they WILL play with surface noise that can be addressed with D4 or a VPI cleaning.  I can’t test-play at the minute. Please don’t bid if this is a problem for you.

So with that said…

 

Beatles LP Meet the Beatles! 1966-1967 MONO Pressing STUNNING NM Vinyl!

 

A later MONO pressing, whose vinyl looks like you just split the shrinkwrap open.

 

Vinyl--- NM/ NM.  This copy looks stone mint unplayed-looking.  But since my policy is never to use that grade, it’s listed as NM. 

Plates--- T26/ T12.  Machine-stamped triangle with the letters, “IAM” inside it makes this copy pressed by Scranton.

Cover--- Nice VG+.  Had it not been for the black magic marker, she’s trying to make a devil out of me at the top right corner, this cover would have graded higher.  There’s a moderate crease to the right of Paul, and directly above Ringo.

“Meet The” is in blue lettering, which was first used on later mono covers. 

Breathe Holes--- N/A.

Labels--- NM/ NM.  Just like new!  Absolutely 100% full gloss, NO SPINDLE MARKS.  Side 2 label uses the earlier 1963 cobalt blue Capitol dome, whereas Side 1 retains the bluish-white one.

Capitol Inner Sleeve--- Original yellow Capitol company sleeve is present and in VG condition.  There is a side seam split a couple inches long on one side.  Other than that, the sleeve would have graded Excellent to NM.  Has the mid-60’s thumb tab.

A generic inner sleeve will be provided, so as not to damage your original Capitol inner sleeve en route.

RIAA: 3

If you’re a completist like I’m a completist and you need a keeper of the last MONO pressing of this LP, this is the one for you

The vinyl is unbelievable.

 

As these records have been in storage for many years, they will play back with crackling and tics, however; a good moisturizing and cleaning with either D4 Discwasher or a VPI machine always clears them up.  Thanks!)

Note:  All LP’s ship outside of their album covers in order not to damage the covers during shipment.

CAUTION!  There has been a startling increase in bidders canceling their bids.  A word to the wise, I have started blocking any and all bidders who retract their bids regardless of the reason.

Please don’t bid unless you’re willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!

(Please note:  Regarding play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized.  The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle.  Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix?  Thanks!)
