WITH RAREST, HARDLY SEEN, EARLIEST FOURTH PROOF/PATENTS PENDING SLEEVE, AND UNUSED CUT-OUT!!

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VINYL LP RECORD IS **NOT INCLUDED** WITH THIS AUCTION, THIS AUCTION IS FOR THE FOURTH PROOF SLEEVE & UNUSED SGT PEPPER CUT-OUT.

This very rare unique sleeve! The “Fourth Proof” sleeve represents the earliest possible pressing of the Sgt Pepper cover. The Fourth Proof was the final version of the various ‘prototypes’ that were explored by the Beatles when the cover was being designed. The cover (and text) was approved by the Beatles and an initial very small ‘test’ run was undertaken to make sure everything looked OK. This small test run is characterised by the inverted “Fourth Proof” text in the top right hand corner of the inner gatefold – just above George Harrison’s head. This is therefore the earliest possible ‘prototype’ (test pressing) cover. The same flip-back has the printed text “AR D1321? which was probably the reference number for this prototype sleeve.

This RARELY SEEN, ORIGINAL FOURTH PROOF Laminated Garrod & Lofthouse Internal Flip back GATEFOLD Sleeve is in Very Good condition, the sleeve shows a little wear and a few light creases, the edges are undamaged, and only mild corner bruising to all four corners and a small crease to the top and bottom right corners. The inside of the Gatefold Sleeve is Excellent. CLEAN and RESPECTABLE - both flip backs are in undamaged, and the print ‘Fourth Proof’ and number ‘AR D1321’ clearly legible. The spine edge shows a little age toning and wear, (nothing major)

The sleeve comes with an ORIGINAL1st Issue UNUSED Sgt Pepper Cut-Out, printed ‘Printed in England’, which is in Near Mint unused condition.

This is a respectable example of this Rare 1967 original MONO FOURTH PROOF sleeve.
