Question
i am looking through my dads old record collection which he wants me to get rid of, and i found a hard day's night parlophone record. it says the gramophone  co. ltd at the beginning, so it can't be first print, but everywhere i look says it should have K T on the front. on this one, however, it is on side 2, not 2, and is upside down. do you know whether there is any reason for this, and would you be able to help value it. thanks

Answer
Based on your description, it sounds like a misprint.  However, not all misprints are inherently valuable unless it significantly defaces or changes the appearance of an album in some matter of significance.  Further, since there was no recall issued, the album would retain a normal value which would be estimated at anywhere from $10-$25.
