CHECK OUT THIS WEEK'S UK AND US ROCK ORIGINAL PRESS  LP  AUCTIONS

THIS IS AN AUCTION FOR A VERY FIRST PRESS OF THE ALREADY HARD TO FIND MONO MIX OF 1969 BEATLES LP "YELLOW SUBMARINE " . THIS WAS ONE OF THE FIRST 300 EX MADE (MOTHER IS "1" ON BOTH SIDES , AND STAMPER "G" ON BOTH SIDES , MATRIX NOS "XEX 715-1" AND XEX 716-1"). HARD TO IMAGINE THIS RECORD IS 42 YEARS OLD !!! I'LL TRY TO DESCRIBE IT THE BEST WAY I CAN . I DO STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT IMAGES AND SOUND SAMPLE ARE A BIG HELP WHEN YOU CAN'T ACTUALLY HOLD THE RECORD . IN THAT CASE , EVEN IF IT COULD LOOK UNPLAYED , THIS RECORD HAS FEW VERY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS , SO I DECIDED TO TO A SOUND SAMPLE . PLEASE , E MAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTION ABOUT THIS RECORD AND I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP .  

 LABELS CONDITION: THE LABEL BOTH LOOK SUPERB . NO CUT , NO STICKER , NO NOTHING !!! I HAD TO PUT THEM UNDER A STONG LIGHT TO SEE VERY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS ON SIDE 1 ( 2 OR 3 !! ) AND A FEW MORE ON SIDE 2 . AGAIN , THESE ARE NOT TO BE SEEN IF YOU DON'T GIVE IT A SERIOUS LOOK . 

CAT NUMBER  IS PMC 7070

MODE/SPEED : MONO , 33 1/3 RPM .

WEIGHT OF THE RECORD / COUNTRY OF MANUFACTURE / YEAR OF RELEASE : 152 GRM WITH INNER SLEEVE , LABEL SAYS "MFD. IN UK ( AND HAS   "SOLD IN THE UK " ) , 1969 .

MATRIX NUMBERS / MOTHER / STAMPERS : MATRIX NOS ARE "XEX 715-1" ON SIDE 1AND "XEX 716-1" ON SIDE 2 . BOTH MOTHER AND STAMPER ARE "1" AND "G" . 

COVER CONDITION ( FRONT/BACK/EDGE/SPINE/CORNERS/INNER ) : I TRIED TO TAKE CLEAR PICTURES IN ORDER TO GIVE A GOOD IDEA OF THE SLEEVE . NO CUT , NO STICKERS , NO WRITING OF ANY SORT . FRONT SLEEVE IS LAMINATED , NOT BACK SLEEVE . 2 VERY , VERY LIGHT LAMINATION CREASES (ON PICTURES ) . IF YOU LOOK UNDER A STRONG LIGHT , YOU CAN SEE THE SLEEVE HAS HAD A RECORD IN IT , BUT IT IS HARDLY RING WEAR OR REALLY VERY LIGHT !!!. ON THE BACK VERY LIGHT YELLOW STAINS UNDER THE SUBMARINE .  GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD. FLIPBACK "Patent No. 943.895." NM TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES . THE LAMINATED FRONT SLEEVE STOPS A LITTLE BIT BEFORE THE RIGHT EDGE (SEE PICTURE ) , THERE IS A VERY LIGHT CUT (VERY VERY LIGHT !!! ) ON THE BACK SLEEVE RIGHT EDGE ( NEXT TO "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE " SEE PICTURE ) . REALLY VERY NICE SPINE IN NM CONDITION , ONE LIGHT LAMINATION CREASE BETWEEN THE 2 L OF YELLOW . A LIGHT USE ON THE CORNERS BUT STILL VERY DECENT . I TOOK PICTURES TOO . INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL BLACK WITH ONE HOLE . SMALL CUT ON TOP . I TRIED TO DESCRIBE EVERYTHING THAT WASN'T PERFECT ON THIS SLEEVE . STILL , IT IS TO ME IN A VERY IMPRESSIVE CONDITION AS YOU CAN SEE ON ALL THE PICTURES . 

IN ORDER TO DESCRIBE THE VINYLS CONDITION , I FIRST INVITE YOU TO LISTEN TO THE SOUND SAMPLES . SIDE 1 LOOKS UNPLAYED AND HAS ABSOLUTLY NO MARKS . WOULD GRADE NM . SIDE 2 HAS 2 VERY LIGHT HAIRLINE SCUFFS NOT AFFECTING THE PLAY AT ALL . BECAUSE OF THAT I WOULD SAY VG++ TO NM . THE LAST WORD I CAN SAY , IS THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TOTALLY POSSIBLE TO BUY A MONO PRESS IN A RECORD SHOP IN 1969  IN THE EXACT CONDITION OF THE ONE I SELL . VERY NICE ONE , AND ALSO , ONE OF THE FIRST 300 EX COMING OUT . I GUESS YOU CAN'T GET EARLIER !!
