Description
Offered for sale is this absolutely incredible piece of modern music history. A relic from perhaps the most important album ever made, this is the original EMI Magenta Printer pressing of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles. One of Four in a set of CMYK Printer negatives used to print the original EMI Beatles' album cover, it is unlikely that any others in this set have survived. While numerous sets were certainly employed for printing purposes, it was protocol that all were destroyed: all but this one. I've had this for 15 years, and prior to that it was in the previous owner's possession for almost 3 decades. According to the provenance I was provided, a young woman who worked at the record pressing plant loved The Beatles, and was able to remove this from the EMI manufacturing facility, now known as The Vinyl Factory. It is currently uninvasively mounted to a vintage XRay lightbox, also included at no extra cost if the buyer so chooses.
While previously listed with a $9,999 price tag, it is now being offered with No Reserve and a $.01 Minimum, which means the highest bidder will win regardless of price!
