Whilst the auction says that this is extremely rare it is the third version of this combination I have seen and with the content likely to be the standard UK single mixes . Yes it is rare but not unique and as the second version shows age may not have treated these discs kindly. On the 18 Sept 2017 a silent Youtube was uploaded showing both sides of the disc. Regrettably since the auction both labels have been 'touched up' with red ink on the worn areas (se images below) |

Auction Description - 2017I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND/THIS BOY DICK JAMES ACETATE - An extremely rare original 'Dick James Music Limited' 7" acetate Demo Disc, an extremely early 1963 recording (TEM 1687/8). The playing surface, always exceedingly tricky to grade, is in G+ condition. There are surface marks and some wear to the lacquer, though this is never heavy or excessive. Obviously not made to be played extensively, the next owner of this piece of Beatles history could certainly play the record through without major playback issues. Issued with red text on cream labels with the track titles in blue. Some scuffing to the labels, this is not excessive. Issued with a cardboard sleeve with 'Sotheby's Belgravia 804762' sticker indicating that the record may have been purchased from one of their auctions. A sample of the recordings will be made available prior to the auction.
Estimate: 600 GBP - 800 GBP |
