Description

Up for auction is a nice original stereo pressing of The Beatles '65 album, originally released in the U.S. on Capitol Records (ST-2228) in 1965:
-Guaranteed original pressing, NOT reissue -Original black Capitol labels w/ rainbow rim -No subsidiary on label rim Matrix deadwax reads:   ST-1-2576-B2   ST-2-2576-B4 -IAM triangle, Scranton, PA pressing
-Original paste down cover -RIAA 6 on rear cover
-Original and correct orange Capitol inner sleeve -Vinyl comes in audiophile protective inner sleeve
Condition: Cover is still very good, no significant ring wear, but some light rubbing top middle.  Upper left has a white spot where a former sticker was probably removed.  Seams are intact, no splits, but top seam has a few small chips.  Corners are nice, not bumped.  Back cover is very clean, bone white, very nice.  There's a small factory drill hole in the middle of cover (see photos).  Overall, still an attractive cover.
Grade: Very Good/Very Good Plus (VG/VG+)

Vinyl looks nice, still retains its original glossy shine.  Has a few very faint hairlines and tiny marks here and there, but nothing really significant, nothing that will affect the sound quality, which is very nice.  Labels are clean, not much wear to spindle holes.  Looks like this record has been played a handful of times but handled with care.  Audio quality is very nice, no distractions.
Grade: Very Good (VG+)


Combined Shipping:
Yes, I offer significant combined shipping discounts.  Just ask!

International Shipping
:
Because of unreliable postal services, buyers in France and Italy must pay for Expedited international shipping, which includes tracking and insurance.  I've had too many records lost or damaged shipping to these countries.  Also, I do not ship to Central or South America, or China.
How I Pack Your Records:
I remove the records with inner sleeves from the covers prior to packing.  I sandwich the record between two pieces of cardboard for padding and protection.  I also reinforce the corners of the shipping box to protect the corners of the record jacket from damage.
