Description

THE BEATLES - BUTCHER ALBUM, 2nd RUN

A RARE RECORD ALBUM OF THE BEATLES - THE FAMOUS BUTCHER ALBUM - UNPEELED AND IN GOOD CONDITION.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW, THE ORIGINAL BUTCHER COVER IS UNDERNEATH THE REPLACEMENT COVER ON THIS ALBUM. YOU CAN SEE THE FIRST COVER AT THE TOP RIGHT AND ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE ALBUM COVER FRONT, AND NO ONE HAS MADE THE "SINFUL" ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE TOP COVER. (A GOOD THING!)

I'VE OWNED THIS ALBUM OF MY FAV FOUR FOR OVER 38 YEARS. (I BOUGHT IT AT A NEIGHBORHOOD YARD SALE FOR $1.00 - SEE THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER, BECAUSE I COULDN'T AFFORD IT NEW.) TODAY, AN ALBUM THIS OLD, IN THIS CONDITION, WOULD POSSIBLY GO FOR UPWARD OF $2500. I'LL TRY TO TELL YOU EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. IF YOU HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS, PLEASE EMAIL ME.

IT LOOKS VERY GOOD FOR IT'S AGE. THERE ARE "OLD AGE" SPOTS HERE AND THERE ON THE FRONT AND BACK, AND THE EDGES ARE A BIT FRAYED IN SOME AREAS, BUT ARE INTACT. THE FRONT IS PRETTY CLEAN AND LOOKS GOOD. THERE IS A SLIGHTLY RUBBED AREA AT THE TOP.

THE RECORD ITSELF LOOKS TO BE GOOD, WITH A COUPLE OF LIGHT SCUFFS (I DON'T REMEMBER IF IT AFFECTED THE PLAYING, BUT OVERALL IT LOOKS GOOD)

THE BACK COVER LOOKS GOOD ALSO. IT HAS A SLIGHT OUTLINE OF THE RECORD AND A LITTLE INDENTION TOP RIGHT AND BOTTOM RIGHT -- AND IS NOT MISSING ANY LETTERING -- VERY IMPORTANT! IN FACT, THERE ARE NONE MISSING THROUGH-OUT THE WHOLE ALBUM. THIS IS A T2553 HI-FI RECORDING BY CAPITAL RECORDS.

THE INNER COVER IS IN VERY DECENT CONDITION AND HAS PICTURES OF ARTISTS SUCH AS FRANK SINATRA, THE BEACH BOYS, JUDY GARLAND, AND MORE. IT HAS A CIRCLE (RECORD) CREASE AND A FEW SMALL TEARS ON THE TOP ON FRONT, AND A PRETTY EVEN SPLIT DOWN THE LEFT SIDE.

I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT OTHER BUTCHER ALBUMS HERE AND OTHER PLACES FOR A LONG TIME, AND HAVEN'T SEEN ONE IN AS GOOD CONDITION.

I WILL SHIP PRIORITY AND INSURED USPS TO AFFORD YOU THE BEST PROTECTION . THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND BIDDING.

WHILE PHOTOGRAPHING, I NOTICED THE SPLINE (EDGE) WITH "THE BEATLES" ON IT DOES HAVE A COUPLE OF PARTIALLY MISSING LETTERS. MY APOLOGIES. IF THAT AFFECTS YOUR BIDDING, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP.

I'VE HAD A NUMBER OF PEOPLE ASKING FOR MORE PHOTOS, SO I'M ATTEMPTING TO ADD THEM HERE. ALSO, THE RIAA EMBLEM HAS "6" TO THE LEFT OF IT.
