Description Rare and highly sought after - Lot of 4 original Capitol Records inner sleeves (Blue 12 TC-1 Version) These are original vintage inner sleeves, not reproductions of any kind!
When the Beatles released their first Capitol album in early 1964, Capitol was using a blue inner sleeve for all their mainline LP's. The sleeve featured mock-ups of 20 of their popular albums of the time, including records by The Beach Boys, The Lettermen, Frank Sinatra and more. The blue inner sleeve continued on Capitol Lp's until after the release of Beatles' Story; some copies of Beatles '65 also have the blue sleeve. All Capitol Beatles albums until that time originally featured the blue sleeve. At first, the sleeves were a dull blue color but by the middle of 1964 a brighter blue came into use. Both variations are designated "12-TC-1" and “12-TC2”
Condition All four inner sleeves are in excellent condition with no split seams, wonderful color and graphic, two of them have light crease. This is a very nice and clean set.
Happy to answer any questions.
