Please Please Me Gold Label Mono Dick James Ex/Ex

Description:

Very rare first issue Beatles Please Please Me Gold Label.

This is the first Dick James credit.  Approximately 25,000 were pressed and of those most were played to death.  Very few survive in excellent condition.

Comes in the original NEMS plastic bag, from Brian Epstein's Liverpool shop.

In over thirty years of collecting and owning and trading at least 20 examples, this is the best one I ever got, which is from my own collection.

The sleeve is at least excellent

The vinyl is in excellent condition with some surface marks and a fine scuff.  I've taken images in direct sunlight in order to show the marks.  In normal indoor light the vinyl appears mint-
