THE BEATLES - PLEASE PLEASE ME LP (2ND UK 'BLACK AND GOLD' PRESSING - PMC 1202). A very well presented 2nd UK mono 'black and gold' copy of Please Please Me. The record (PMC 1202, with Northern Songs credits for A1, A2,B4 & B6 and Dick James credits for A6 & A7) is in clean VG+ condition showing a few light and minor surface marks to the lovely, clean and glossy playing surfaces and with a small 'just about feelable' scratch at the end of B6 into B7, this has been play tested with a couple of light clicks, no skips or jumps. Matrix/mother stampers: XEX 421-1N 2 GL & XEX 422-1N 12 GO. With sharp and clean labels showing MT tax code on side 2. Housed with clean original Emitex inner. The 1st printing (right aligned Angus McBean credit, large mono) sleeve is in strict VG condition - the front super sharp showing just a couple of light and minor creases and a little stain on the bottom right section, the reverse showing some minor foxing and with some wear to the bottom flipback tab, namely a little lifting on the left section and a small tear on the right section. Very strong example.
