In Absolutely Awesome MINT condition - THE BEST - see scans of front and back covers - Fantastic.

 

From Ascot in Berkshire, from Weybridge in Surrey, from St John's Wood in the Borough of Marylebone and from Apple in the West End, John, Ringo, Paul and George send you these tapes of love and greetings soldered into a collective disc by the iron wrist of Maurice Cole.  The Beatles wish all of you a happy Christmas and may the Seventies Give Peace a Chance.

Cover designed by Richard Starkey and Zak Starkey. 

 

Issued on Lyntone Records through The Official Beatles Fan Club - you know the rest - not commercially available - only sent out in the post to Fan Club members etc - the last (seventh) in the series of flexi discs from Christmas from the Fab Four etc etc.

 

The Catalogue number is LYN 1970.

Issued in 1969.

 

CONDITION –

The 'vinyl' flexi is in Mint (incredible) condition.

The sleeve is in Mint (incredible) condition. 

(Record Collector gradings).

 

There is no writing or other blemishes, the text is striking and clearly legible with NO fading, it is as pristine as the day it left the factory.  The spindle is clean with no evidence of wear or playing.

Many copies of this flexi were played endlessly, often scratched until they were unplayable.  This copy however has clearly been treasured from the day it arrived, and stored flat and out of sunlight, so no fading etc.

The most outstanding aspect of this copy is the MINT condition with no blemishes at all.  This Fan Club Flexi Disc has clearly been loved and treasured by a keen collector.  Almost 30 year vintage, which is astounding in itself.

This single is becoming increasingly rare, especially in this condition.

 

Quite brilliant!

 

A TRUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM.
