Beatles, The/Beatles record

Question
I have A beatles album that I was wondering if you could help price. First it is the Meet the Beatles! The first album by England's phenomenal pop combo. It has the number T2047 on the front top right corner. It also has a small 6 on the back bottom left of the cover. After reading about this album I found that there were many different variations, I could not find one that described mine. Can you help?

Answer
Hi Katy!

Well, I don't actually do online appraisals any longer due to the recent skyrocketing prices of Beatles albums. In order to truly give any sort of accurate appraisal of your album, I'd need a lot more information, such as it's condition (vinyl, cover, label), song listing (in the order they appear), and at the very least a picture of it to determine which variation you have. The 6 on the back is an indication of where it was pressed, which in this case would be Los Angeles. If your album is in VG condition, having very few pops, scratches or blemishes, you could probably get around $40-$50 for it. That's about all I can say without actually seeing it. Wish I could offer more assistance. Thanks for the question!

Peace,
Pattie
