Beatles / A Hard Day’s Night
Japan Orig. LP


Odeon OP - 7123

Appendices: "F/B Different Cover”, "Insert" & “Red Wax”
( OBI & INNER SLEEVE are missing )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1964 ) of their OST album, coming with rare red wax. Back cover is with “Japanese liner notes” on the back, and the front cover’s artwork is also different from UK copy. Disc is rare red wax, issued only for its early press. “LONG PLAYING” text is on the bottom-rim of each label of disc ( See photo ) which proves that it’s very 1st press. Price on the back cover is JPY1800. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red wax even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/EX- ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for light ring-crease on the front & back. It’s lightly tanned around the rims of back side. Right-edge is lightly worn. Otherwise it has none of any tear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has several slight scuffs on Side B with a slight short scratch on Side B-2 & B-3 ( inaudible ). There’re a few spindle-marks on the label of Side B. Otherwise it has none of any hairline, which is to be rated as “EX-". No flaw on the groove of Side A.

OBI: Missing

INSERT: G+, being lightly tanned with brown spots in places on the surface of each side.

INNER SLEEVE: Missing
