This is a great 3rd state peel of The Beatles Mono Butcher cover, an authentic 1966 Capitol Records cover with the vinyl album.
Cover:
This is a very nice peel. The original cover was well preserved by the trunk cover. The top cover was removed with great care. If you look at the photos you will see some white on John s hand and on the meat above it. This is a remnant of the original trunk cover that was not removed. This is how I received this album. I did not try removing this last little bit of the original cover because I did not want to cause any damage. I would expect that someone who knows how to remove the cover, could remove this last little bit of the original trunk cover.
The great thing about this cover is that the trunk cover did a great job of preserving the butcher photo. There are some problems with the cover that was not under the original trunk photo that you can see in the photo. There is some wear and dirt along the edges and some stains. The side spine is split but the top and bottom of the spine are not split. I added as many close photographs as I could because they will tell you more about this cover than I could say here.
Vinyl:
I have not played the vinyl but there are visible scratches on it. I am not sure how much it would affect playing. The original inner sleeve is missing so I have included a new, high quality MOFI inner sleeve.
Shipping:
I will pack this record safely in a very thick record shipping box. I will keep the vinyl outside the cover so there isn t any damage during shipping from the album shifting inside the album jacket. Shipping to US and Canada only.
Payment:
Please pay within 2 days of winning.
Please let me know if there is some question that you have, which is not covered here.
