RARE BEATLES BUTCHER ALBUM STATE?
You are bidding on a Beatles Butcher Album which I think could be an original. I bought it from a man who would be in his late fifties or early sixties. It has his last name written in the upper left hand corner. There are a couple of small spots of wear, one in the doll head and another in Paul's hair but these do not appear to have been done by peeling. Under close scrutiny, I can see no glue residue. The pebbly texture is good and I don't think it has fade much if any. If it was peeled it was done a long time ago by someone who knew what they were doing. On doing internet research one sight recommended putting a small piece of wet tissue on the surface and letting it dry to see if it would stick. I did this and it did not stick. The sight also said after they were glued over, the edge was trimmed. It did not give a size that it was trimmed to, but this cover measures exactly 12 ΒΌ inches wide. Both sides of the sleeve are open and part of the bottom. It was well used but not abused. The back is soiled and also has a name written on it. The inside sleeve is plain white paper and is torn. The record itself is in used condition with some light scratches on each side. I don't have a turntable to play it. It is in as found condition. It is number T 2553. If you need more information on this or can tell me any other ways to check its authenticity, I would be glad for the information. Shipping, handling, and insurance (from a source other than the USPS) if breakable (which is only our costs) is included in the shipping price within the continental US. I try to ship the same or next day after payment is received except for Saturday payments. Once the Post Office has it, I have no control over their quickness of delivery. Check out our other auctions this week. We combine shipping whenever possible. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
