LABELS ARE MINT
This promo pack was issued by the German pharmacutical company Stada. It is believed that fewer than 200 of these outer sleeves were produced and distributed to company executives or prospective new clients.
It's worth noting that no copies of this album have surfaced onto the collectors market (via auction) in the last three years and neither was in the spectacular condition of this copy - don't miss out! Now read on for condition details.
The Vinyl
The album is a regular German issue from 1981 with green Odeon label. It has machine stamped matrix numbers and is in mint/unplayed condition, a beautiful copy!
The Picture Sleeve
The sleeve is exactly the same as if you'd purchased this album in Germany in 1981. It is a single pocket picture sleeve with 'Beatles For Sale' in bold black letters at the top of the sleeve. This differs from both the UK and US versions of the sleeve. A faithful reproduction of the German original. There is an EMI/Odeon logo in the top left hand corner (on the front) of the picture sleeve.
The rear of the sleeve contains a black and white group shot of the band (as used on the Italian 'I Favolosi' LP) and some text by Derek Taylor.
The condition of the sleeve is immaculate - mint.
Outer Sleeve
The all important outer sleeve is in effect a slipcase with an opening in the right hand side in which you slide the album (and sleeve) into. The design is completely different to any other image used on a Beatles sleeve - unique!
The front of the outer sleeve
At the top of the sleeve the text proclaims 'Beatles For Sale' in bold black letters in the same font as the regular German album, below this are four cartoons of indescribable purple heads (perhaps supposed to represent the Fab Four), below this is the 'Cutistad' logo in blue and red.
The rear of the outer sleeve
The rear of the sleeve is blank except for the German text 'Mit Freundlichen Grussen' [With Best Regards'] and underneath that the company's address.
The condition of the outer sleeve is beautiful. The edges and corners are all sharp with miminal scuffing to top edge. The colours are bright and vivid, the white is clean and free from discolouration. A real time warp copy!
