Description
Welcome to my auction. At long last my wife has persuaded me to sell off some of my records that I have been collecting for nearly 20 years. Please note that I am not a dealer . I grade by RECORD COLLECTOR'S grading system.
The Beatles on Parlophone
Catalogue number : R 5305
Year : 1965
Mono/Stereo : MONO
Tracks : Help, I'm Down.
Condition : Here for auction I have another of my Beatles gems, the mega rare 'Help' Demo. It is in Very Good condition but plays VG+. The vinyl has many very fine marks on it, but none of those are deep or scratches that you can feel. Still has nice shine. Compared to most demo's labels these are not so 'shiney', but after some investigation work and talking to a dealer friend of mine who has been in the trade for over 20 years we have come to the conclusion that this is a 'DEMO' of the Demo. Basically a test sample before it was released to the radio stations. So you already have a MEGA rare demo as stated in Record Collector 'EXISTENCE UNCONFIRMED' but also this is a TEST SAMPLE of THAT DEMO!!! It has KT tax stampers on 'A' side. Comes in an original sleeve.
Matrix numbers: Side 1- 7XCE 18280-2
Side 2- 7XCE 18281-2
Mother stampers: Side 1: 4 at 9 o'clock, GRL at 3 o'clock
Side 2: 2 at 9 o'clock, RGA at 3 o'clock
Grade : Record - VG (+)
Sleeve - VG++
