$

53

In this auction is 1 original Beatles Picture Sleeve with 1 original Beatles Capitol orange-yellow swirl label 45 RPM record. 

Here are the details:

·       “AND I LOVE HER” b/w “IF I FELL” by The Beatles 

·       This is a 7-INCH RECORD and PICTURE SLEEVE issued by CAPITOL RECORDS. 

·       This is Capitol Records 5235.

·       This record and picture sleeve were issued July 20, 1964.

·       The RECORD in THIS AUCTION is THE FIRST PRESSING. We know this because on the labels the publisher is co-credited to Unart Music and Maclen Music. The vinyl does not have a factory-marking in the trail-off which indicates that this vinyl was pressed at Capitol Records’ Scranton plant.  

·       The VINYL is in NEAR MINT MINUS CONDITION with several very light/slight surface hairlines/scuffs. The Labels are NICE and CLEAN.

·       The PICTURE SLEEVE is in VERY STRONG VG+ to NEAR MINT MINUS CONDITION. There is JUST A VERY SLIGHT “HINT” of extremely light ring wear near Paul’s and Ringo’s heads (NOT significant at all as you can see in the images.) The sleeve is MOSTLY FLAT with some very light disc impression. Just check out the images and you’ll see how minor this wear really is and how NICE and CLEAN with GREAT COLOR this picture sleeve is! There are NO SEAM SPLITS, NO TEARS, and NO WRITING on this sleeve!!! 

·       This is a STRAIGHT-CUT (EAST COAST) PICTURE SLEEVE.

This BLUE PICTURE SLEEVE has become a VERY DESIRABLE SLEEVE and a VERY TOUGH SLEEVE TO FIND in NICE/DECENT CONDITION!!!
