Beatles / Help !
Japan Orig. LP


Odeon OP - 7387

Appendices: “Original OBI”, “G/F Cover”, “Insert", “Inner-Bag”, “Pin-Up” & “Red Wax"

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1965 ) of their original album, comin' with complete appendices. The disc is rare red-wax, issued only for Japanese early pressing. The gate-fold cover shows “Japanese description” & “Photos of members”. The enclosed pin-up was issued in limited number for its 1st press. It’s very hard to find this item in complete shape even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

COVER: Cover is lightly worn on the corners & outer-edge, while being creased in the right top corner of front & left top of back.

Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.
