Description

When Beatles disbanded in 1970, Apple records compiled all of their 1963-69 annual Christmas messages which the Fab Four had distributed to their fan clubs and worldwide appreciation societies via series of extremely rare flexi-discs and 45rpm singles, and issued them on a single album. To our best knowledge, this album has never been released anywhere in the world in this format and is brutally hard to find. Indeed, this is one of the toughest items in the entire Beatles catalogue. In many ways, even the infamous "Butcher cover" is easier to find.

This album sold recently on EBAY for $314.00 in similiar condition. Don't let this one get away as you might not see another for a long time! This was not released to the public and there are very few copies in circulation!
