Beatles / In the Beginning ( 1961 )
Japan Audiophile Edition LP


Polydor 18MM 0574

Appendices: "Red OBI", "G/F Cover" & "Insert"

Description: This is scarce Japanese Audiophile edition copy ( released in 1987 ) of their early album, comin' with complete appendices. AD on obi reads in Japanese "Digitally Re-mastered". It may be only in Japan to issue this album as audiophile on vinyl. It's hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: EX/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is excellent in condition, except for lightly creased spine-edge. It’s slightly discolored on the top-rim inside gate-fold, while being clean on each side. Otherwise it has no tear, edge-wear, ring-wear, dent, strip, stain & writing…fine in shape.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There’re a few spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as "NM". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, I guarantee you.

OBI: G+, being stained with brown spots in places on the surrface of back.

INSERT: EX.
