THE BEATLES
Title : Beatles For Sale Label : Parlophone Cat No : PMC 1240
Matrix : XEX 503 - 3N / 504-3N Issue : UK 1st Press
This is the UK 1st press of ‘Beatles For Sale' by The Beatles. The labels are yellow & black, with ‘The Parlophone Co Ltd,’ ‘Sold In UK’ and the 'Recording First Published' text. The record is complete with the original inner sleeve and laminated gatefold flipback mono sleeve.
The record is in Very Good+ condition. The vinyl has a sensational high gloss, with just a few very light wispy marks. The vinyl lies completely flat on the turntable. There is the slightest noise at the intro but this soon clears and the sound is rich and very clear. It still has the wonderful early heavy vinyl vibrant, complete sound. There are a few moments of light noise but this does little to spoil the enjoyment of this earliest press.
The earliest yellow and black Parlophone label is in exceptionally clean, Excellent condition. The black is bold, the yellow is bright and the text is sharp. There is only the slightest spindle wear. The record is complete with its original Emitex polylined inner sleeve.
The laminated flipback sleeve is in Very Good condition. The colours are bold, the laminate has a stunning bright mirrored shine and the picture is extremely clear. There is just a little edge wear and a couple of laminate creases. The inside flipbacks are sealed and complete, there is a little discolouration but it is still exceptionally solid and clean. The text is sharp and the black is bold. The spine is wide and extremely firm with clear black text on a clean white background. The whole sleeve is very solid.
