Why Buy From Us? We specialize in Beatles Butcher Covers!
YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION IS ALWAYS GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK! I urge you to check out my feedback comments and ratings - that is the bar to judge the source of such an important investment. See what folks have to say! Quality is the key, and that is what we offer!
Please be aware that every butcher cover is like a diamond - rarely are two ever alike in all the investment features they offer. RARELY have we ever had a near perfect butcher. Each cover has its strengths and weaknesses. We strive to keep the latter at a minimum. I can tell you butchers of this quality are hard to come by! This is an outstanding offering.
We are also honored to say that one of our Beatles Butcher Covers has been placed on display in Liverpool, England - YES! THE HOMETOWN OF THE BEATLES! - at the world renown BEATLES STORY MUSEUM. One of our clients has a wonderful display of U.S. Beatles memorabilia presently being showcased at the venue. Please contact us for any further information.
AUCTION SPECIFICS AND CONDITION:
ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BUTCHER BEING OFFERED!
THE COVER:
Beautiful Scranton #3 Mono Butcher Cover
The color on this butcher is way above average in what we see on Srantons and is eye catching and vivid. Scranton butchers have that real pretty dark blue tint to them that makes them unique. As with virtually all of our butchers, the pictures allow you to see the incredible fine dot matrix texture of the original butcher slick that has been exposed. Often times, excessive glue residue from amatuer peels, or very difficult to peel butchers makes this detail hard to see. Excessive glue residue also dulls the color of the butcher giving a yellowish cast to the overall color. That is not an issue here. Look at the finite detail of that dot matrix printing in the photos! These dot matrix lithos have a unique hue to them that makes a butcher cover look even more magical in person. AND -THERE ARE NO TOUCH UPS OR FLAWS FROM PEELING ON THE BUTCHER COVER IMAGE! The detail is stunning.
Scranton covers do often have their tell tale sign of light lines running through the butcher image. That is indelible and unique to the repasting process at that record plant. They all have it to some degree. The lines on this cover are there as usual, but do not deter from the overall beauty of the cover. (see pics)
The edges on the border surrounding the butcher image are a beautiful clean white as they were protected all of those years by the original shrinkwrap. The seams are all in rock solid condition with no splits, cracks, or harsh wear. All of the spine print is in great condition.
The printing on the back is all there, bold and black, and contrasts very nicely with the bright white of the surrounding cover. You can see some very light aging along the mouth's edge of the cover where the shrinkwrap was torn away exposing some of the paper cover to the elements. It is very light an not a distraction at all. This back panel is overall really nice white. The portion of the cover that remained covered is like new. The photos tell it all - extremely clean and white. This is one really nice butcher! Just a gorgeous classic cover to show off in your office, den, or music gallery!
This offering also includes a peeled Yesterday and Today slick that can be framed with your butcher. It does have one small piece of corner missing, and has some light discoloration from the peeling process, but will frame nicely if you chose to do so.
This is a beautiful collector's peice that will come with a unique-to-your-butcher coded Certificate of Authenticity that is signed by our good friend and butcher artist Jim Hansen of Blue Jay Way Galleries, and will include butcher specifics and date of peel. This cannot be used for any other butcher cover but yours!
