Offered here is a stunning mono 3rd state Butcher Cover. This was a professional peel, not done by a housewife with her iron, but by a true expert (someone like a Gary Hein, etc.). You will not be seeing many more like this, as the experts capable of doing this kind of work are few and far between (and getting older every day). I purchased this one from Perry Cox, which if you know what you are looking at / for, will give you an idea of the quality of this item.
This copy has no residue of the pasteover cover whatsoever. Moreover, it has no marks, splotches or tears on the original cover from where the pasteover was peeled. NONE WHATSOEVER. This was a perfect peel. There are no seam splits, just the edge & corner wear as depicted in the high definition photos. The bottom right seam is the only one with any real issue (see pic). There is common yellowing and a very slight curve to the jacket (which is normal). An amazing example of a classic collectible and the cornerstone of any Beatles collection.
Includes the original inner and the Capitol Records facsimile letters.
Because of the high value of this item, and the sad reality that there are many bootleg versions in circulation, there will be no returns. Please be sure to examine the high def photos closely. They tell the true story on this item. Ask questions! This item is priced to sell.
The BC will be shipped in a professional record mailer, which will be packed inside a larger mother carton to insure safe transport (at no additional cost to the buyer). Tracking included.
