NOTE: Cost is around 500 to have a professional
PEEL your Butcher cover...with that in mind, it is far better to spend
the money have a professional do the involved task rather than
trying to remove the trunk cover yourself.
Many Butcher covers have been
ruined when novice collectors attempted this highly difficult task ...When in doubt, our advice is : DON T BUTCHER YOUR BUTCHER Includes the original printed 66 Capitol Records inner sleeve ::: investment QUALITY ORIGINAL 66 BUTCHER COVER lt gt lt gt lt gt lt gt lt gt lt T gt lt H gt lt E gt lt gt lt B gt lt E gt lt A gt lt T gt lt L gt lt E gt lt S gt lt gt lt gt lt gt lt gt lt gt By the time the Capitol Records released Yesterday And Today,
the Beatles were in hot water in America.
The record was released just
after John s infamous interview in which he stated that the Beatles were
bigger than Jesus , which angered Americans and provoked many bans on
their music and public incinerations of memorabilia.
But Yesterday And Today
would take public dispproval to a whole new level, as the original
cover featured the band in butcher s smocks with baby doll parts and raw
meat covering them.
The record was pulled almost immediately - creating
an instant collector s item - and in the confusion that followed,
several replacement covers were issued.
Songs on the album were taken
from the leftovers of the British release Rubber Soul as well as the single/B-side Yesterday/Act Naturally released on the UK version of Help ,
the single/B-side We Can Work It Out/ DayTripper , and three songs
which had not, at that point, been released in the UK: I m Only
Sleeping , Doctor Robert , and And Your Bird Can Sing which all
wound up on the UK version of Revolver .Drive My Car 2:30 Recorded: October 13, 1965 at Abbey Road, London, EnglandJohn Lennon - lead vocal, tambourinePaul McCartney - lead vocal, bass guitar, pianoGeorge Harrison - lead guitar, background vocalRingo Starr - drumsI m Only Sleeping 3:01 Recorded:

because of very minimal rub wear on spine but no seams splits.
The back cover is very clean with exception of a small rub-wear spot at upper right of back, but not showing up in photos as small and still white.
Overall as the photos show, the front back panels are GREAT - all
things considered see photos - appearance in hand is exactly like what is presented in the photos here.
Most peeled butcher copies will show at least some or more wear, tears and
imperfections to the cover slick.
This copy makes makes for a fantastic display-worthy framed wall hanging, total greatness with no wear to the front cover The 4
individual Beatles faces in their butcher glory are spotless clean,
a rarity for even the best Butcher covers.
Just the wear on spine and that little wear spot on back cover keep the overall cover from being M-.
Again, much better than the usual original Butcher cover.
Overall, a GRAND addition to
any valuable collection....
Solid peeled Butchers covers like this are very scarce with most copies are safely tucked away in private collections.
No split seams, no tears or rips, no writing, no delete marks, overall in reasonable acceptable investment condition - ask any further pertinent questions please.
The vinyl is rated: VG representing a respectable platter, few minor hair scuffs is all and plays exceptional throughout -- even though it s all about the butcher cover - as you know, and the original 66 vinyl is readily available for future up-grade purposes if desired.
...
both 1966 mono RAINBOW Capitol labels are clean.
