Description
REMEMBER: This auction is a "BUY IT NOW" or make a "BEST OFFER". Lot: 111608 BEATLES "Introducing The Beatles" EXTREMELY RARE VEE JAY VERSION 1 "MONO" AD BACK LP-1062. Outer Jacket These jackets traditionally were not constructed very well nor was the printing and coloration made in such a way as to prevent wear. They wore terribly even with care. Splitting on all edges was very common, and this one is no exception, however this one is one of the RAREST outer jackets even conceived - known commonly as the "AD BACK" making it in any condition, one of the most sought after albums ever made. Therefore one must remember that when buying such an item, you are buying RARITY. To take this one step further, this AD BACK has a VERSION 1 VINYL (in Beautiful Condition!) making it a FIRST PRESSING and even RARER. If both the outer jacket and the vinyl were MINT, the price of this package would be substantially higher. THE PRICE IS BASED UPON THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE JACKET AND VINYL taking into account the factor of scarcity. The spine is completely in tact and clearly readable. The words "PRINTED IN U.S.A." appear on front lower left side of cover. There is a small amount of writing on rear side of the front outer cover (top right) and has George's shadow clearly visible. The AD BACK is pictured with 25 Vee Jay Album Covers. The record itself (A VERSION 1) is actually quite nice, with only some very minor marks (hardly visible to the naked eye) which do not affect play in any way! For those who are not familiar, VERSION 1 albums contain the recordings LOVE ME DO and P.S. I LOVE YOU rather the more common VERSION 2 which contain in their place, PLEASE, PLEASE ME and ASK ME WHY. One has to consider how RARE this album actually is and how scarce these FIRST PRESSINGS have become. The vinyl market for items like this is drying up rapidly and as time goes on, there are fewer and fewer of these around - in any condition. For those of you who are not aware of the history of this album, the ADs on the BACK in the form of other Vee Jay Album covers are there to hide the supposed song titles of songs which Vee Jay was supposed to have stopped selling due to the fact that they were in the process of being sued by CAPITOL RECORDS. It was apparently the thinking at that time by Vee Jay executives that by hiding the song titles, no one would really know what they were selling inside. How stupid were these people! According to the latest BEATLES 2007 Price Guide by Perry Cox, ANY VERSION 1 is quite RARE. A "MONO" AD BACK "VERSION 1" in MINT CONDITION in today's market would command between $5,000.00 to $7,000.00. Unfortunately, MINT versions of this album are extremely hard to come by. This album as a total package is NOT MINT, however the vinyl should be rated as VG+++. We feel the asking price reflects it's true value taking into consideration both condition and rarity of the total package. We have made every effort to describe this product as honestly as we can, giving attention to every detail so that we can always avoid hearing that famous auction term "NOT AS ADVERTISED". This is your opportunity to ask questions, seek additional photos, or express any potential concerns PRIOR TO BIDDING. A Great Find for any serious BEATLE collector! One of the most sought after BEATLES ALBUMS. Other Vee Jay items available are: MONO BLANK BACKS, STEREO AD BACKS, MONO AD BACKS, VERSION 1s (STEREO & MONO), VERSION 2s (STEREO & MONO), SONGS & PICTURES (STEREO & MONO), VJ 522 (BRACKETS & OVALS - "FROM ME TO YOU") STOCK & WHITE LABEL PROMOS, VJ 581s (SEVERAL VERSIONS - WHITE, YELLOW, PURPLE, BLACK, RAINBOW) STOCK & WHITE LABEL PROMOS, VJ 587 (DO YOU WANT TO KNOW A SECRET) STOCK & PROMOS, BEATLES vs. 4 SEASONS (STEREO & MONO), plus approximately 8,000 other BEATLE RECORDS, CDs, TAPES, including recordings on ATCO, METRO, CLARION, MGM, APPLE, CAPITOL (STEREO & MONO 1st & 2nd STATE BUTCHERS), UNITED ARTIST, PARLOPHONE, ODEON, HORZU, DARK HORSE and much more! Thanks for looking and Good Luck! TERMS & CONDITIONS PREFERRED PAYMENT METHOD: MONEY ORDER, CASHIER’S CHECK, PERSONAL CHECK or COMPANY CHECK (both of which need to clear our bank before item ships). ALTERNATE FORMS OF PAYMENT: If approved or noted by the seller, PayPal. Although a popular payment method, this medium does experience significant online problems quite frequently causing a major time consuming disruption in the payment procedure and based upon our experience, is not a secure site, subject to potential “hackers”. It is also our contention that paying by MONEY ORDER, CASHIER’S CHECK or PERSONAL / COMPANY CHECK allows us to CONSIDER LOWER OFFERS. Therefore when making any offer, please advise us that your offer or bid price is based upon a specific METHOD OF PAYMENT. This can influence our decision to accept an offer. FREE SHIPPING: Available on certain items as noted. If uncertain, please inquire when BIDDING or making a BEST OFFER. All payments are required within 48 hours of the sale if you are using any online payment method such as PayPal (only under certain conditions and only if approved by the SELLER. All other forms of payment are required within 5 days (DOMESTIC); 10 days (International). SHIPPING: Shipping using actual costs are calculated by item, location, handling, packaging and whether or not special insurance or tracking is requested. We use FedEx, DHL or USPO. Where FREE SHIPPING is noted, the choice of shipping method is to be determined solely by the seller. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK IF THE ITEM YOU ARE BIDDING ON OR MAKING A “BEST OFFER”, QUALIFIES FOR “FREE SHIPPING” (CONTINENTAL USA ONLY unless otherwise specified). RETURNS: All items sold “AS IS”. Once an item is in the hands of a BUYER, it is the property of the BUYER since that BUYER would then alone control its condition. Therefore, we do not promote or accept returns unless previously agreed upon as a condition of the sale. We reserve the right to return no items, as it is our experience that this only promotes disagreement and potential deception. It is the responsibility of the BUYER to READ THE AUCTION CAREFULLY, ASK QUESTIONS, REQUEST ADDITIONAL PHOTOS, SEEK OUT OR RESEARCH THE ITEM on his or her own PRIOR TO BIDDING. It is the sole responsibility of the BUYER to possess the appropriate knowledge relating to any item, which he or she is bidding on. Any lack of knowledge on the part of the BUYER which causes disagreement after he or she receives it, is not grounds for any item to be returned. It is not the responsibility of the SELLER to instruct, teach or inform the buyer beyond the description in any auction, although if asked the SELLER will answer all questions or concerns by any potential BUYER and assumes the responsibility only to sell items honestly without intent of deception. It has been our experience, especially with the purchase of VINYL RECORDS that these items can be and have been purchased for the sole purpose of recording their material onto an alternate format such as burning a CD. This is quite common and is THE primary reason for rejecting all returns since once it is in the hands of the BUYER, we the SELLER have no control. If there is a problem with any item received it is the responsibility of the BUYER to contact the SELLER within 7 DAYS after receipt of item. At that time, the SELLER will review all claims in an attempt to be fair to all parties. It is the SELLER’s decision alone to grant the return of any item without any obligation to do so.
