When Beatles disbanded in 1970, Apple records compiled all of their 1963-69 annual Christmas messages which the Fab Four had distributed to their fan clubs and worldwide appreciation societies via series of extremely rare flexi-discs and 45rpm singles, and issued them on a single album. To our best knowledge, this album has never been released anywhere in the world in this or any other format and is brutally hard to find. Indeed, this is one of the toughest items in the entire Beatles catalogue. In many ways, even the infamous Butcher cover is easier to find.

WHILE MANY CONVINCING COUNTERFEIT COPIES OF THIS ALBUM EXIST, WE ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE THAT THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY, ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, GENUINE PRESSING OF THE ALBUM. WE ARE SO CONFIDENT THAT THIS IS THE AUTHENTIC PRESSING THAT WE WILL GLADLY PROVIDE CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY AND PROVENANCE TO THE WINNING BIDDER UPON REQUEST.

ALL THE ELEMENTS OF THE ORIGINAL PRESSING ARE IN PLACE: clear and legible inscription on the spine of the cover Bell Sound machine stamp in the trail-off vinyl which many collectors take to be a sufficient proof of the record s authenticity and provenance , cardboard cover with slick folded and pasted onto the back cover thick vinyl, fine and precise font and lettering on the label, clear and sharp images on both front and back cover The inscription Theatre Royal above John Lennon s head on the third from the left image at the bottom row is clear, visible and fully legible the photo image of the Beatles 1964 Christmas flexi-disc on the back cover is NOT grainy and spotty as is the case on most counterfeit pressings .

CONDITION:

RECORD

IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight

a WE GRADE THE VINYL AS WEAK NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions mostly sleeve scuffs - are barely visible, but are probably inaudible, and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

b The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording
