Description
THE BEATLES - YESTERDAY & TODAY ''THIRD STATE MONO'' PROFESSIONALLY PEELED BUTCHER COVER WITH CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA). COMES WITH THE CORRECT RECORD, TRUNK COVER SLICK, PLUS COMPANY SLEEVE IN NEAR MINT CONDITION.
''It's interesting to note that '3rd State Butcher Covers are just about as hard to find as 1st State Butcher Covers! The reason is that most collectors didn't peel great condition paste covers. Far more often they did peel examples in less condition. So the result is that great condition peeled examples are actually very very rare indeed having great condition on the front slick AND the rest of the cover too! So the value of a 3rd state peeled Butcher cover is directly connected to how great the peeling process was.''
Labels have a black rainbow color-band without "subsidiary" rim text.
This version was pressed by Capitol's plant in Scranton, PA (identified by stamped letters I over AM inside a triangle). see pics
