THE BEATLES - YESTERDAY AND TODAY - CAPITOL T- 2553. FROM 1966 IS THIS FAMOUS/INFAMOUS RECORD COVER. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SECOND STATE MONO COPY WHICH MEANS THE ORIGINAL "BUTCHER" COVER LAYS BENEATH THIS VISABLE "TRUNK" COVER. YOU CAN READ ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THIS PROCESS ELSEWHERE; SUFFICE TO SAY THIS IS A BRILLIANT VERSION/COPY. THIS IS GRADED VG++ AND HAS A VERY SMALL STAIN BLHC ON THE TRUNK FLAT. THERE ARE A COUPLE TEEEEEEEEEEENY DINGS ALONG THE OPENING. APART FROM THESE VERY MINOR IMPERFECTIONS THIS FLAT WOULD GRADE AT NM. RINGO'S BLACK TEE SHIRT ON THE ORIGINAL COVER BELOW IS DARK AND SHARP. THE CARDBOARD COVER BELOW HAS A DENT BRHC, A SMALL DING 2" UP THE SPINE AND A TEEEENY SPLIT ON THE TOP SEAM AT THE OPENING. IT SEEMS TO BA ABOUT 2mm. THE BACK COVER IS IS VERY CLEAN WITH SOME LIGHT RUBBING. THIS IS A NUMBER 6 COVER FROM THE LOS ANGELES CAPITOL PRESSING PLANT AND IF YOU BOUNCE THE LIGHT OFF THE COVER YOU CAN SEE THE ROW OF ROUND IMPRINTS FROM THE RE-COVERING PROCESS ALONG THE RIGHT BORDER OF THE FRONT FLAT. THIS CONFIRMS A PROPER L.A. PRESSING. THIS INCLUDES THE ORIGINAL "CAPITOL '66" ORANGE AD INNER SLEEVE. THE BLACK RAINBOW LABELS ARE NM AND THE VINYL IS GRADED VG+ AND HAS THE  "STAR" OR "*" MARK IN THE DEADWAX THAT ALSO CONFIRMS AN L.A. PRESSING. THIS IS GOOD INFO IF YOU DECIDE TO HAVE THIS COVER PROFESSIONALLY PEELED TO REVEAL THE BUTCHER COVER BELOW, AS THE L.A. COVERS ARE KNOWN FOR BEING THE EASIEST TO PEEL. WE DON'T RECOMMEND PEELING SUCH A NICE SECOND STATE COVER THOUGH. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL, BRIGHT WHITE CLEAN COPY THAT SHOULD PROBABLY REMAIN IN THIS CONDITION AND WOULD LOOK GREAT IN A FRAME.
