Description: This is “Japan Tour Apple Edition” copy ( released in 1969 ) of their 1st album "Please Please Me" ( originally issued to commemorate their 1966 Japan tour ). The gate-fold cover is completely different from UK copy of the same album. Insert is not originally issued for this item. Instead the colorful booklet is inlayed inside gate-fold cover to show "Japanese liner notes", "English & Japanese lyrics" & "Colorful photos of their stage". It’s hard to find this copy even in our country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )
COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for minor stain-marks around the rims of back side. Light ring-wear is also on the back side. The booklet inlayed inside gate-fold is lightly scraped on its surfaces. It’s clean on the front side. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.
DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. There are a few spindle-marks on each label, with stain-marks on the label of Side B. Minor scuff marks are on the inner-groove ( not music surface ). Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as “EX+".
