Description

Please Please Me 3rd Press with the extra small 33 1/3 Stereo Issue. Condition is "Used". Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class.


This is the incredibly rare true 3rd UK Stereo issue.

Widely acknowledged as ONE OF THE RAREST RECORDS IN THE WORLD.


Perhaps only 200 or so copies were ever pressed, which would make it rarer than even the black / gold stereo versions.


The sleeve is the very desirable stereo 'gold' type with the Angus McBean credit to the far right. This is in good /very good order with a neatly taped split bottom seam / flip back repair. General wear to edges and corners. See pictures for further detail.


Original Emitex sleeve in very good condition.

The labels are in very nice condition too.


The vinyl has the stampers 1M and 1G.


Visually, both sides have scuffs  / light scratches. It plays with no sticks, jumps or skips, just some light crackle and occasional clicks. Still nice and shiny.


A good example of this legendary pressing which the Rare Record Price Guide lists at £3000 in mint condition. Great value at this price.
