1995 Reissues Limited Edition Lp's

I've seen lately a lot of this Lp's on Ebay. What's the deal with them? Are they legitimate? Anyone has some info on these albums?

I just saw a slew of Beatles vinyl U.K. LPs - new and sealed on a site that spcializes in vinyl. If the ones you saw are the same as the ones I've seen thne I'd say they're legit.

Which ones have you seen on eBay, anyway? There are always TONS of original pressings, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc... and re-issues on eBay on any given day.

The ones that have a "Limited Edition" sticker. I bought a couple. Haven't opened them ,though. They have the Apple, Parlophone and Capitol logos. The albums released are the UK albums, so no "Beatles VI", "Second album", etc.

They are legitimate. In 1995 Capitol reissued the U.K. albums on the purple capitol label, except those from The white album forwards which had the Apple logo. The "Please Please Me" catalogue number for instance is C1-7-46435-1. They all had a small sticker with "Limited edition" on the shrinkwrap.
