Incredibly rare factory sealed copy of The Beatles’ album “Rubber Soul”, released on December 3rd, 1965, with a rare hype sticker. The copies of this album pressed in between December 1965 and March 1966 didn’t have the sticker. The appearance of this sticker on the “Rubber Soul” album occurred thanks to the British pop duet David & Jonathan who teamed up with George Martin to make a cover on The Beatles' “Michelle” in 1966, and the copies of The Beatles “Rubber Soul” were equipped with a yellow 1½” x 3” sticker where the recording label had to indicate: "Hear Paul sing "Michelle" Original Beatles' Version". Therefore, it could be stated that this copy was pressed no earlier than March 1966. At this time the Capitol Records labels already indicated the name of the band "The Beatles", under the album's title "Rubber Soul", which is absent on the 1965 pressings. The copy has the factory designator RIAA 3 number in the lower right-hand corner identifying the pressing by Capitol Records pressing plant in Scranton, PA.

Stunning Mint final upgrade copy. The factory shrink wrap containing the original breathe holes is fully intact and doesn't have any splits, tears or missing pieces, only just some light age scuffing and shelf wear.
