Here’s a very unusual Beatles item – a nice original mono “Yesterday And Today” LP with what looks like a standard trunk cover and a sharp original inner sleeve.  But look closely, and there’s clearly (though faintly) SHADOW PRINTING AT TOP RIGHT.  The word “Today”, the last part of “Beatles” and some of the words in the song titles are clearly visible approx 1.5 inches below the actual printing!

 

This is certainly some kind of manufacturing error and not “smudging”. 

 

I’ve done my best to capture the shadowing in the photos here – you might be able to see a hint of it if you look very closely, but it’s much more obvious when looking at the actual cover.

 

I’m not an expert, but as far as I can tell, this is NOT a second-state butcher cover – there’s no vest visible next to the trunk, and it looks like someone (not me, I swear!) started to peel the top right corner (nothing is underneath).  But it still MAY BE A PASTE-OVER? – if during manufacturing, a trunk cover somehow got chopped 1.5 inches at the bottom and pasted at the proper bottom position, then it’s possible this kind of shadowing would be visible without the slicker showing under a top corner peel.  It would, however, be visible under a bottom corner peel – please do NOT ask me to do this (I won’t). 

 

My best guess is this is not a butcher cover or paste-over of any kind, but rather a printing error.  But if so, IT MAY BE EVEN RARER THAN A BUTCHER COVER!! I’ve looked in every reference source I could find and found no mention of this issue. 

 

PERHAPS IT’S ONE-OF-A-KIND!?!?!

 

 

CONDITION:  (See GRADING GUIDELINES below for further details)

LP GRADING GUIDELINES    

  • NOTE: All LPs are professionally cleaned using the VPI HW-17 RECORD CLEANING SYSTEM and carefully inspected under a grading lamp with 120-watt bulb.

  • Guidelines reflect TYPICAL factors determining grade - variations are noted in the description
  • Please note: I DO NOT USE EXCELLENT (EX) as a grade.
  • Flaws for ALL covers graded below VG+ are noted in the description.
  • I rarely use grades below VG, and all vinyl graded VG or less is appropriately spot play-graded to assure sound quality.
  • Grades below G are not listed, as I typically do not sell merchandise in such condition.
  • Intermediate grades (e.g., NM-, VG/VG+, VG++) are used, as applicable.

     

  • MINT: Factory Sealed; cover virtually flawless.

  • NM+  (Near Mint Plus) - Factory sealed with minor cover flaws, OR an otherwise mint LP recently opened by me and played in spots for demonstration purposes.

  • NM  (Near Mint) - vinyl, cover and labels nearly flawless.

  • VG+  (Very Good Plus) - what many refer to as "excellent"; pretty close to NM. Full or nearly full-gloss vinyl with a few hairlines, minor surface scuffs and/or sleeve marks; possibly one or a couple small, light  scratches (inaudible or causing unobtrusive soft clicks, noted as applicable in the description) on an otherwise NM piece. Expect only slight surface noise in spots. Cover has slight general wear and/or aging, OR minimal wear/aging and a couple of minor flaws (noted as applicable in the description).

  • VG  (Very Good) - Vinyl still glossy, possibly with slight graying; has a few or some light scuffs, sleeve marks and hairlines, possibly a few small light  scratches. Expect only slight surface noise in spots.

  • VG-  (Very Good Minus) - Vinyl typically glossy with slight or some graying; generally has all of the flaws noted in the VG grade to a greater degree (hairlines, light scuffs, surface marks, small light scratches, sleeve marks). Expect slight or some surface noise that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming.

  • G  (Good) - Vinyl typically still glossy with some graying; generally has some scuffs, surface marks and light scratches, plus lots of sleeve marks and hairlines. Expect some surface noise throughout that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming - NO skips, sticks, heavy scuffs, deep scratches, excessive noise, or loud pops or clicks (unless noted in description).
