Fuze .LTD

Sleeve is (EX-), Vinyl is (VG)

For those among you who aren't familiar with the background, this very, very rare unique cover, commonly referred to as the “Fourth Proof”, represents the earliest possible pressing of Sgt. Pepper's cover. It's the final version of several "prototypes", which were all subject to approval of design by the Fabs themselves to making sure that everything looks "ready for production". It was certainly not supposed to be released as "unchanged testing cover". It is characterized by inverted wording “Fourth Proof” on upper right corner of the gate-fold's inside, commonly right above Gerorge's head - very rarely on the utmost right, like on this cover.
Moreover, only a few of these had “AR D 1321" (which is because wording "Fourth Proof" went to the right instead of being printed right above George's head).
Hence this is a rare version of a rare cover.
