BEATLES "PANTOMIME" CHRISTMAS FLEXI
ORIGINAL AND RARE 1966 UK FAN CLUB ONY FLEXI DISC.
EACH CHRISTMAS THE BEATLES ISSUED A SPECIAL FLEXI DISC AS A THANK YOU TO FAN CLUB MEMBERS.
1966 SAW THE RELEASE OF THEIR FOURTH UK FLEXI ISSUE. EACH YEAR THE BAND WOULD GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO THINK UP DIFFERENT IDEAS FOR THE CHRISTMAS RECORD AND THE 1966 ISSUE IS CONSIDERED AS ONE THEIR BEST EFFORTS AS UNLKE PREVIOUS YEARS THE GROUP DIDNT RECORD INDIVIDUAL CHRISTMAS GREETINGS BUT INSTEAD DEVISED THE PANTOMIME THEME.
AS WITH PREVIOUS RELEASES THIS 1966 FLEXI CAME HOUSED IN A PICTURE SLEEVE AND INCLUDED THE FAN CLUB NEWSLETTER.

THE WHITE LABEL WITH DISTINCTIVE GOLD LETTERING IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION WITH ABSOLUTELY NO MARKS PRESENT. THE BRIGHT AND VIVID LABELS RETAIN THEIR TRUE WHITE COLOUR WITH NO "BROWNING" OR HANDLING MARKS AND ALL THE GOLD LETTERING IS PERFECT WITH NO RUBBING OR FADING. ALL THE CLEAR AND UNSPOILT WORDING IS COMPLETELY READABLE AND PORTRAYS A LIKE NEW APPEARANCE.
THE FLEXI VINYL IS STUNNING. THE DISC LIES PERFECTLY FLAT AND HAS SUFFERED NO "KINKS" OR CREASES. THE VINYL MAINTAINS ITS ORIGINAL DEEP GLOSS..... QUITE SUPERB!
THE ORIGINAL NEWS LETTER IS SUPERB WITH JUST LIGHT BUT EXPECTED CREASES. IT IS SPOTLESSLY CLEAN WITH NO HANDLING MARKS AND IS TOTALLY INTACT WITH NO SPLITS OR TEARS....... A TOP QUALITY EXAMPLE.
THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT FLIP BACKED OUTER SLEEVE IS POSSIBLY THE BEST EXAMPLE I HAVE SEEN. THE FRONT PANEL DISPLAYS JUST THE ODD VERY LIGHT EDGE CREASE BUT IT HAS TO BE STRESSED THAT THESE ARE MINIMAL AND ARE ONLY VISIBLE WHEN SLEEVE IS ANGLED IN A CERTAIN LIGHT. ALL THE COLOURS AND LETTERING ARE PERFECT AND VIBRANT WITH NO FADING. THERE IS THE SMALLEST HINT OF CORNER BUMPS PRESENT BUT APART FROM THAT NO OTHER SIGNS OF WEAR. THE REAR IS ALMOST MINT!!! IT FEATURES PERFECT FLIP BACKS WHICH LIE FLAT WITH NO CREASES AND THE REAR IS FREE FROM ANY HANDLING MARKS, THE REAR IS STILL ITS ORIGINAL BRIGHT WHITE COLOUR AND AGAIN ALL LETTERING IS STRONG, VIBRANT AND PERFECT.
OVERALL A STUNNING EXAMPLE OF POSSIBLY THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER OF ALL THE UK FLEXI DISCS. THIS COPY HAS CLEALRY BEEN WELL STORED AND CARED FOR OVER THE YEARS AND THIS HAS HELPED TO MAINTAIN IT IN SUCH APPEALING CONDITION.
