Additional info: According to Perry Cox's Beatles guide, this is one of the rarest Beatles items commercially issued - the Beatles holiday banner which says "Wishing you a Happy Beatles Holiday." The flimsiness of the banner is the main reason why this is so impossible to turn up. I would wager many Beatle completists have never even seen this item. It would only be retained if the shrinkwrap was left on by the buyer, as it would simply come away with the shrink if the LP were unwrapped. It was designed to fit across the bottom as shown in the top photo (to the left). Evidently very few were made, who knows how many still survive? I have never seen it for sale before. Cox lists it at $1750 in his guide ... my reserve is less than half of that. The banner itself is in excellent shape with a minimum of fraying. Considering it is on paper no more sturdy than an obi strip that is pretty good. It does have some age spotting in the middle, but no other major imperfections aside from some slight creasing. A truly rare Beatles collectible in amazingly well-preserved condition!
Please check our other listings for over other folk, psych, avant garde, rock and outre records, many cleaned on a VPI machine. Buy several and save on shipping! Please be aware that we may require registration for overseas customers and will add any costs to the postage (Especially to France!!).

- If an uninsured or unregistered package goes missing, please be patient. Don't file a claim - give it time to arrive.
