THE BEATLES GIRL / YOU'RE GOING TO LOSE THAT GIRL *MINT* ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE WITH NEVER ISSUED UNAUTHORIZED *MINT* 45 RECORD
Very rare to find the never issued Capitol 1977 original sleeve along with the unauthorized Girl 45 that is not the colored vinyl issue, but the clear vinyl which was much more rare and less produced.
The clear 45 is **MINT** Unplayed and the sleeve is **MINT** **PRISTINE** never touched perfect !!
Over 40 years ago, this Capitol single (# 4506) was going to be released as a single from the Love Songs album, but was withdrawn at the last minute. Just a few thousand of the picture sleeves were already made up, and quickly found their way onto the collectors market. The stock labels had already been printed up as well. This is without a doubt the nicest MINT copy of this sleeve I have ever seen !!
Issued in October 1977, only a small quantity of the original promotional copies ever turned up, and today are worth near $1000.00, which are black wax with ridged grooves. In 1978, a few months after the single was withdrawn, the stampers were stolen from Capitol Records and soon they cleverly ran off stock copies of the single, which never had originally existed. They were pressed using several different colors of vinyl, with the clear vinyl being much more rare and stunningly ascetically pleasing.
