The Beatles

Title: Yesterday And Today

VINYL Ex+ Closer to Near Mint!

COVER: Super Clean except for small indent (See pic) and name written on back and remnant of a price sticker (See pic). No attempts to peel. (See pic). Beauty!

CAPITOL T 2553 MONO

Comes with poly lined inner paper sleeve and Original Capitol sleeve.

NOTES:  This release is notorious for its 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").

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.

A first state Butcher cover (without the actual record) previously owned and autographed by Ringo Starr was sold at an auction in 2015 for $25,600.
