The Labels
The Parlophone logo is in striking yellow with all other text in silver on a black background.
The perimeter text on the label reads "The Parlophone
Co Ltd." yet it omits the "Recording first published" and
"Sold In The Uk Subject To..." text.
The matrix numbers are machine stamped into the dead vinyl.
They both end -1 indicating that this one was among the first pressed on this eighth run.
They are as follows
Side One - YEX 94-1
Side Two - YEX 95-1
The vinyl shows just a few very light paper scuffs or hairlines and on testing plays beautifully without sounding clear, loud, clean and crisp with only a very minor spindle rubs to be seen, overall a lovely example
Complete with inner bag
The front laminated flipback sleeve is the Garrod & Lofthouse design
The front of the sleeve has a small 'stereo' logo in the top right hand corner. It has crisp, clean laminate. The Angus Mcbean photo has rich vivid colours.
The back cover shows little minor flipback back wear, just turned up or worn back to their extremeties and some general typical minor corner scuffing.
Overall there are very few signs of storage or age with the sleeve retaining a bright vivid appearance in its entirety, perfectly legible print throughout with the spine free of any rubbing or crushing, and the front cover itself has sno obvious wear, a great example considering its age clearly well cared for by its original keeper.
It is the debut album of the biggest band in history.

This is one of 10000 singles LP's, 12” and 7" that I HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS; they run from the 1950's to the 2000's and cover every style of music.
I am slowly listing them one by one and they are in a verity of condition, most are good or very good, with some in shop purchased condition (i.e. Like new), I don’t have time to play every record listed, (well only the ones I want to listen to), therefore I can’t vouch for the playing condition of this item, however if you want to know how it plays please ask and I will play it and let you know if there is any excessive hissing, scratches and what condition the vinyl is in.
I have kept most of these records for 30+ years plus so my goal is to make sure they arrive with you in the same condition that I have kept them, enjoy bidding and please feel free to ask any questions and I will try to answer them
