Description
Welcome to my auction for one of my "The Beatles" collectables.
On offer is a contract pressing by Decca of
"WITH THE BEATLES"
When The Beatles started to hit it big time,EMI could not keep up the demand in pressing records,hence they contracted to Decca, Pye being the other record company that was chosen to press this album
It is not known how many contract pressings were pressed by Decca but not that many survived in respectable condition.most were played at parties with the turntable arm up,this ensured none stop play....
This copy is from my own vast collection,as i have been a Beatles fan right from the early days..this is my second copy,(i listed one last week).
Vinyl is vg has some marks, not played for years.super shine,even the run out groove looks superb
No warping,lays flat,treated with T.L.C.
Has spindle wear as it was played not looked at.(see photo)
side 1....xex 447 -7n.3-3 in run out groove..
side 2..xex 448 - 7n..4 in run out groove...Decca did not use D or G stampers....at 9 oclock.....
Emitex inner sleeve in top condition.
Sleeve in VG ...apart from the corners ,which are a little scuffed, has a inch tear at the opening (front), the record was taken out and put back many times.
Notice John Lennons shadow on his face is darker than some of the other sleeve photo's.
Front botton right hand side has crease and laminate flacking.still a nice sleeve.
Reverse is just off white ,due to age,no writing,tape,flipbacks are all perfect and in beautifull condition for its year.
spine tip top condition,fully readable With the Beatles.
Laminate great. .
Garrod and Lofthouse sleeve.....
Remember this is not mint.....
mint ones have fetched over £400.00
If you don't have a copy,then this is a great filler......
i have added a few photos,that way you can have a better look at the album.
a great collectors record...
Correct mailer will be used.
U.K. Recorded at £3.50
Worldwide...your choice of shipping.
i have put courier in description,postage will be actual,i don't ever make on postage....
Any questions,just email me.....
Have a great week.
