WOW! What you are bidding on is a out of print rock LP from THE BEATLES: YESTERDAY AND TODAY on the original black rainbow Capitol label from the USA. If you've every wanted a butcher cover, this will do nicely. This one in the Second State, you can tell it's a paste over, from Ringo black triangle and there is a small bit exposed at the top left side, and you can see the texture from under the paste over. The nicest one we've ever had.
This release is notorious for it's controversial original cover photograph, known as the "Butcher Cover".
The initial response to the cover from the estimated 60,000 advance copies was so negative that Capitol recalled all 750,000 manufactured copies from its distributors for repackaging with a more conventional photograph.
Butcher covers are generally divided into 3 categories:
First state - Original unaltered version.
Second state - First state cover with the new artwork pasted over (generally known as a "Trunk Cover"). Which this one is and in STEREO.
Third state - A second state copy where the pasted-on Trunk cover image has been (fully or partially) removed, revealing the Butcher cover photograph underneath.
The notoriety and scarcity of the Butcher cover has made it one of the most expensive and sought-after Beatles releases.
