I've found this mono one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BEATLES-Magical-...7#ht_841wt_1037.

It seems to be great....

its not unreasonable if its a top top copy but i sold a minter for g 25 recently so you can get it cheaper if u get lucky

i have also sold minters for nearly g 200 as well so you see how hard it can be to give a value....

Here's a question about the MMT EP. I bought this from a record shop (Those were the days!) in Edinburgh about 1990 while I was on a course. Checked it recently and disc 1 is Stereo SMMT-A1 - solid centre. Disc 2 is in Mono MMT-B1 again solid centre. As I've said before I'm new on here and learning! Is this probably a cobbled together set with one Stereo and one Mono or does anyone know more about this?
Just noticed that the back of the Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve has MMT-1 Mono in top lh corner.

Probably. The two discs have totally different fonts etc (See I'm learning!).
Disc 2 has 7XCE.18436 one side and 7XCE. 18437 on the other. Disc 1 has two numbers per side - 7XCE 18435 and 7YCE18435 on side one and 7XCE 18434 and 7YCE 18434 on side two.#
Anyway I can listen to MMT in Stereo and Mono ;)

It sounds like you have a 70's repressing of disc 1 and an original 60's disc 2
which shouldnt be together..

Yes, it isn't right!

What about the cover and the inners?

What specifically can I tell you about those to help?

I think you are right - not worth anything but might be unique :D (Apart from someone who has the Mono 1 and Stereo 2!!).

Made a mistake on description Disc 1 is solid Disc 2 has the round seperated centre bit.

Cover is as said MMT-1 Mono on back. Can't say much more - has Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse on inner back. Sleeves are both plain paper white with "Wavy" tops.
Excuse my ignorance!

First disc - Stereo one has a solid middle with no text. Second disc - Mono - has a push out centre with the Sold in UK wording both sides.
I think it's probably as been said a put together job.
