THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1966 U.S. WEST COAST MONO THIRD STATE 'BUTCHER ALBUM' (PEELED) EXAMPLE OF THE BEATLES "YESTERDAY AND TODAY" ALBUM! THIS EXAMPLE WAS MADE AT THE LOS ANGELES, CA. FACTORY IN 1966.  THE FRONT BUTCHER SLICK IS EXCELLENT AND DISPLAYS BEAUTIFULLY!

UP FOR AUCTION IS AN ORIGINAL 1966 MONO THIRD-STATE PEELED BUTCHER COVER ISSUE OF THE BEATLES CLASSIC LP "YESTERDAY AND TODAY" (Capitol T-2553). THIS EXAMPLE WAS MANUFACTURED AT THE LOS ANGELES FACTORY.  THE FRONT BUTCHER COVER IS IN FABULOUS CONDITION! YOU RARELY SEE PEELED BUTCHER SLICKS THIS CLEAN! THIS COVER WAS PEELED AND REPAIRED BY THE MASTER, JIM HANSON OF BLUE JAY WAY, ARGUABLY THE BEST BUTCHER PEELER IN THE WORLD (SEE PHOTOS OF THE COA AND JIM'S SIGNATURE INSIDE THE MOUTH.) THE BALANCE OF THE COVER IS VG TO VG+. BOTTOM SEAM HAS A REPAIRED SPLIT, THE TOP SEAM HAS A SMALL REPAIRED SPLIT, AND THE SPINE HAS NO SPLITS WITH ALL THE WORDS INTACT. BACK HAS SOME SLIGHT AGING AND LIGHT SOILING. SOME SLIGHT BOWING TO THE COVER AS IS TYPICAL FOR PEELED BUTCHERS.

ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL RECORD, THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE, AND A COPY (NOT AN ORIGINAL) OF THE OFFICIAL "LETTER OF RECALL" FROM CAPITOL RECORDS IN 1966. THIS AMAZING PIECE HAS BEEN IN MY COLLECTION FOR OVER 10 YEARS, AND IT'S TIME FOR IT TO FIND A NEW HOME. (SORRY, THE TRUNK SLICK IS NOT INCLUDED.)   GOOD LUCK BIDDING!
