I have been Collecting Beatles Records & Original Memorabilia for since 1962. Due to my continued Poor health I have decided to sell various quality records and memorabilia from My Extensive Private Collection

All Photographs are of the actual items being offered. ( I DO NOT use stock photo’s )

                                                   THE BEATLES.
I am pleased to offer for sale this superb example of THE BEATLES Official UK Fan Club “ SIXTH CHRISTMAS RECORD “
LYNTONE;    LYN   1743 – 1L   &   LYN 1744 – 1L
Complete with  AN  ORIGINAL ‘ SUPERPIX ‘ SET B PROMO FLYER INSERT FOR THE FAN CLUB ‘ SUPERPIX ‘ PHOTOGRAPHS  & AN ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH FROM THIS ‘ SUPERPIX ‘ PROMO INSERT
( The ‘SUPERPIX ‘ PHOTO’S WERE ONLY AVAILABLE BY SUBSCRIPTION  FROM THE OFFICIAL UK FAN CLUB BY SUBSCRIPTION)

As is now well known these Fan Club Xmas Flexi Discs were not available in record  retail outlets as they were only available  to all current Fan Club members and sent out free towards the end of December 1968, 
Unlike the previous Fan Club Xmas Flexi Disc Issues , each of The Beatles recorded their Christmas messages seperately. George introduced Tiny Tim singing a bizarre version of "Nowhere Man". The Recording consists of sounds and Fab greetings, including  “ Happy Christmas Happy New Year “  Johnno’s  poem “ Jock & Yono “ and “ Once Upon a Time Pool Table “. Guest appearing artist Tiny Tim absolutely destroys “ Nowhere Man “
All the separate recordings were passed to Kenny Everett for editing together.
The Fabulous Psychedelic Sleeve was designed by Paul McCartney.
This the 1968 UK Fan Club Xmas Flexi Disc was the first of the discs to be issued as a Double sided flexi disc with the label details being printed DIRECTLY ONTO THE VINYL. Due to an unknown problem with this printing process both the 1968 & final 1969 flexi discs  print on these vinyl discs was very prone to fading, indeed on many examples the text has faded out  completely leaving just a blank disc on side 1. This however is NOT the case with this superb example.

CONDITION;
DISC;    LABEL  DIRECT PRINTING              EXCELLENT ++
                              As can be seen from the photographs all the disc printing is in superb                               Condition with all the printing very clear with virtually no fading.  f                               
DISC; VINYL.              MINT-   ( Flexi Disc Grading )          
                              On close inspection under my powerful Halogen desklamp I could detect                                     NO stylus marks or scratches of any kind
SLEEVE;                      MINT -  
                            As can be seen from the close up photographs the sleeve is in absolutely                                  Stunning all round condition with NO fasding or age toning of the white                             background and vibrant coloured sleeve.

                              PROMO / INSERT FLYER;           MINT - 

                                  GUARANTEED ORIGINAL VINTAGE “ SUPERPIX “ SERIES ‘ B ‘                                                           SALES SERVICE Order Form from December 1968.                             This UK Fan Club Promo Sales form was sent out with some of the 1968                                       Xmas Flexi Discs for some fan club photographs which were only available                              to purchase by fan club members.                              This double sided promo flyer hardly ever appears for sale with the 1968                               Flexi Disc as many of them were simply discarded as of no interest .

‘ SUPERPIX ‘    ORIGINAL VINTAGE PHOTOGRAPH  No, B2.      MINT –
                            This is an actual GENUINE ORIGINAL ‘SUPERPIX ‘ PHOTOGRAPH                              AS ADVERTISED ON THE ABOVE FORM.
This superb example has always been stored in acid free tissue paper resulting in the  Sleeve retaining it’s as new appearance with no colour fading 
 
Overall in my opinion this is rare and excellent example of this ever harder to find 6TH  Fan Club Flexi Disc  particularly with the original promo / insert & photograph An excellent investment for a Beatles Collector.
