Description

Ultra Rare Beatles 1st Press Stereo – Gold/Black Parlophone Label with Original Sleeve (1963)
For sale is one of the rarest and most collectible Beatles LPs: a UK first stereo pressing of Please Please Me (PCS 3042), issued in March 1963 on the black & gold Parlophone label. Stereo copies were pressed in very limited numbers, as the vast majority of buyers in 1963 purchased the mono edition. As a result, true stereo first pressings are exceptionally scarce and highly prized by Beatles collectors worldwide.
