Here it is! No reserve auction only, no buy it now offers accepted. Please read full description and see all photos prior to bidding. I am a professional record dealer of 20+ years experience I am honestly and accurately grading this. No better or worse condition than described.

This is 100% no question at real MONO 2nd state paste over butcher cover. This one is really obvious because you can clearly see Ringo’s black turtle neck and a faint impression of his face on the right. (Pictured). Matrix numbers on the dead wax are: T-1-2553-F-17- with a * star symbol. Has original inner sleeve.

COVER CONDITION: Sleeve is VG! Top spine is split and has damage all along the entire top spine. Cover has light water damage but is completely straight, no ripple or distortion. Spine lettering is partially there but starting to split at bottom. Writing on back. Some idiot peeled off a bit of the bottom right front corner to see if it was a butcher. You can see through the damage that it is THIS DID NOT PEEL AWAY THE BUTCHER SLICK!

VINYL CONDITION: this is VG due to two deep scratches on side 1 running through tracks 2-3 and track 6. These scratches produce pops but played through on my Techniques turntable without skipping. I can’t guarantee what the results will be on your set up, but it was ok when I tested it. There are surface marks and scuffs on both sides but the two scratches are the worst. The other scuffs are pretty light. The vinyl is still nice and shiny as seen in the photos, and there is black writing barley visible in black pen on side 1 label. NO WARP! Record is nice and flat, but this is an honest VG condition no better. RECORD HAS BEEN MANUALLY CLEANED PROPERLY BEFORE LISTING.

This copy is a good collection copy, spine could be repaired by buyer if you feel the need to.

Please be aware of the condition, I am doing my best to accurately describe and there are 12 photos of all sides.
