THE BEATLES - PLEASE PLEASE ME LP (ORIGINAL UK MONO 'BLACK AND GOLD' PRESSING - PMC 1202). Lovely to see very well presented 1st UK mono 'black and gold' copy of Please Please Me. The record (PMC 1202, with Dick James credits for tracks A1, 2, 6, 7, B4 and 6) is in very fine VG+ condition. Showing some light and minor surface marks, the playing surfaces remain sharp and glossy with absolutely no heavier marks or scratches to mention. Crisp and clean labels with clear ZT tax code to side 1. Matrix/mother stampers: XEX 421-1N 1 O & XEX 422-1N 1 H. The first printing sleeve ('right' aligned Angus McBean credit) is in solid VG condition - the front lovely crisp and sharp with only a little lamiante wear, the reverse bottom left section tab is lifting with a small piece of the top right section of the flipback tab torn. Elsewhere bright and clean with the spine in lovely order and fully legible.
