THE BEATLES - WHEN I'M 64 7" - ORIGINAL UK EMIDISC ACETATE RECORDING. Up at lot 64(!) is this Incredible to see original UK single sided 7" Emidisc acetate recording of When I'm 64, the classic track would never originally be released on 7"... The record has a printed Emidisc label with hand written details of the time (2:41), appearing to contain the initials of the engineer (RP) and is dated 13-1-67, interestingly roughly 4 and a half months before Sgt. Pepper's was released. The record is in well presented VG condition. There are some light surface marks noted, though these are not heavier and though there is some light wear to the aluminium lacquer, there is no peeling or other deterioration to it. The non-playing side is blank (some scuffs). The recording appears to be the same as the released version on Sgt. Pepper's.
* Winner to pay 28% buyer tax.
