MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR/FOOL ON THE HILL (Capitol #18890 GOLD VINYL CEMA Special Markets 45, 1996): UNPLAYED MINT 45 w/JUKEBOX TITLE STRIP!

All 29 CEMA Special Markets "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!" Beatles singles had miniscule pressings:   

The Capitol colored vinyl 45s are the rarest stock-copy Beatles singles ever released in the US; there were between 10,000 and 22,000 copies pressed of each "FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!" 45.  When issued in the mid-'90s, juke-jobbers filling their machines were switching to CD jukeboxes.  They didn't want the records, so Capitol sold them to chain stores & mail-order companies just to get rid of them.  The scarcity of these colored vinyl Beatles 45s is impressive compared to the countless millions of '60s orange-and-yellow swirls and the immense flood of orange, blue & purple-label reissues of the '70s and '80s.  The entire series of 29 includes 9 singles that had never before appeared as U.S. 45s (like this one!) & 2 others with alternate flip sides.  It's been over 25 years since Capitol released this beautiful record & its rapidly-increasing value reflects its scarcity.

                       Sounds terrific on your turntable, jukebox...or put it in The Vault!

                         One only...don't miss it!
