Meet The Beatles
JUKEBOX COMPACT 33
Capitol SXA 2047, Stereo, January 1964, East Coast only

With 5 Original Seeburg Jukebox Company title strips
& 3 Original Mini LP Cover Photo Inserts

During the sixties, Capitol issued stereo Compact 33 discs of some of the label's most
popular albums for jukebox play. These 7" records had a small center hole and played
at 331/3 RPM. These mini-albums were normally programmed with three songs from the
album on each side of the disc. The songs featured on the Compact 33 records were
often unavailable in the 45 singles format. The discs were housed in a cardboard jacket,
which had a miniature reproduction of the album cover on the
front and a blank white back side.

Capitol produced three Beatles Compact 33s starting with Meet The Beatles,
then The Beatles' Second Album and Something New being the final two.
All three were manufactured by Capitol's Scranton factory.

As these records were intended for jukebox play,
they are seldom found in respectable condition.
We offer here, a most wonderful example of the very first Beatles
Compact 33 Meet The Beatles, released in January 1964
at the time of the release of the LP Album.

The condition of the Cover is a terrific and solid Near Mint Minus
(borders on VG+++). The front gleams with its brilliant graphics, with some sporadic
surface wear, but not bad at all. The borders remain a shiny white.

The back side a remains dirt-free with a respectable white tone
with very faint and minor aging :

The Compact 33's were produced with the Capitol black labels,
the outer rim color band and the Capitol logo at the bottom.
The condition of the disc is stunning to say the least, graded at a TRUE
"AS NEW" UNPLAYED beauty ! The Labels as the images depict are stellar !

Accompanying the sleeve and record are the
Original Seeburg Jukebox Company five title strips
(one is separated from the strip), and its three
Original Mini LP Cover Photo Inserts,
all manufactured by the Star Title Strip Co. ::

(Also available is the second Beatles Compact 33 The Beatles' Second Album,
released in April 1964. Scroll down to that Date frame for details).

Capitol 5150, 3/16/64, OSC, West Coast

RARE LABEL WEST COAST VARIATION :
Revised Publishing Credits "LIMITED" Spelled Out in Full

At the time the Beatles second Capitol single was issued,
Walter Hofer had yet to set up Maclen Music, Inc.
to handle the publishing for the Beatles songs in America.
Initial pressings of the disc list the British company
Northern Songs Music, Ltd. as the publisher for
both Can't Buy Me Love and You Can't Do That.

Presented here is the previously undocumented discovery
of the West Coast revised label listing the
publisher as Northern Songs Limited.
In Bruce Spizer's great book The Beatles Swan Song,
this discovery is presented on page 265.

(ACTUAL SCANS)

The condition of this rarity is virtually perfect - stunning and graded
as Mint "As New" Unplayed. The Labels are equally stellar.

Offered here for the first time,
which has remained undocumented until now, is the
EAST COAST (Scranton, PA) revised Label with "LIMITED".

(ACTUAL SCANS)

The condition of the Vinyl is a sensational and glimmering Near Mint Minus,
with shimmering grooves, and very minimal play time evident.
The Labels grade a beautiful and colorful Near Mint Minus as well.

The Beatles' Second Album
JUKEBOX COMPACT 33
Capitol SXA 2080, Stereo, April 1964, East Coast only
 

During the sixties, Capitol issued stereo Compact 33 discs of some of the label's most
popular albums for jukebox play. These 7" records had a small center hole and played
at 331/3 RPM. These mini-albums were normally programmed with three songs from the

Capitol produced three Beatles Compact 33s starting with Meet The Beatles,
then The Beatles' Second Album and Something New being the final two.
All three were manufactured by Capitol's Scranton factory.

As these records were intended for jukebox play,
they are seldom found in mint or near mint condition. NOT IN THIS CASE !
We offer here, a most splendid example of the second Beatles Compact 33
The Beatles' Second Album, released in April 1964
at the time of the release of the LP Album.

The condition of the Cover is an amazing Near Mint, with the back side remaining
free of dirt and aging stains, which are often evident with these Covers.

(ACTUAL SCANS)

The Compact 33's were produced with the Capitol black labels,
the outer rim color band and the Capitol logo at the bottom.
The condition of the disc is stunning to say the least, graded at a Mint Minus
and this beauty appears UNPLAYED. The Labels as the images depict are stellar !

The Seeburg Jukebox Company five title strips and its three miniature paper covers
did not accompany this set when acquired, for these strips were normally
separated for insertion into a jukebox record index. Most likely, and based on it's
supreme condition, this Compact 33 set never reached the distributor level for play.

(Also available is the third Beatles Compact 33 Something New,
released in October 1964. Scroll down to that Date frame for details).

at 331/3 RPM. These mini-albums were normally programmed with three songs from the

which had a miniature reproduction of the album cover on the

Capitol produced three Beatles Compact 33s starting with Meet The Beatles,
then The Beatles' Second Album and Something New being the final two.
All three were manufactured by Capitol's Scranton factory.

As these records were intended for jukebox play,
they are seldom found in mint or near mint condition.
We offer here, a most glorious example of the third
Beatles Compact 33 Something New, released in October 1964 .

The condition of the Cover is an astonishing Mint Minus
and appears to have been stored the day it was issued.
Colors and graphics on the front are stunning.
The sheen to the image simply glistens.

(ACTUAL SCANS)

The blank white back cover is the best we have ever seen.
No dirt, no ringwear, just a couple of very faint, light,
hardly perceptible spots of age mellowing. Not worth mentioning,
but stated for complete accuracy.

The Compact 33's were produced with the Capitol black labels,
the outer rim color band and the Capitol logo at the bottom.
The condition of the disc is STUNNING to say the least, graded at a
Mint Minus and is Unplayed - as shiny and
gleaming as the day of production !

Accompanying the sleeve and record are the
Original Seeburg Jukebox Company five title strips
(one is separated from the strip), and its three
Original Mini LP Cover Photo Inserts,
all manufactured by the Star Title Strip Co :

VERY RARE WEST COAST VARIATION !!

Both East AND West Coast of this Sleeve have straight cut tops.
Yet, this RARER West Coast variation has a greenish tint
(pink on the East Coast) that is visible on the faces and gives
the blue backround an almost faded look. The left and right sides of
the folded paper visible on "The Inner Light" side
(pictured above) are bowed outward at the bottom.
These West Coast issues are few and far between
and have become quite a RARITY !!!

This particular WEST COAST example is quite a find
in this condition !! It is a phenomenal NEAR MINT MINUS
with bright. bold colors - displaying very little wear
and handling as evident in the scans below.
