Item Description

If you are a Beatles fan, this is quite likely one of your Holy Grail collector s items. In fact, this may be that album for collectors of any performer in any genre. This is an absolutely beautiful item. It is a second state version of the butcher cover release of Yesterday and Today. The album was released on Capitol in 1966, number T2553. This is the original mono release of the album. The cover is in exceptional condition. You can see Ringo s vest under the word Today on the right side of the cover. The cover shows light ring wear and light corner and edge wear. All seams are sharp, tight, and intact. There is some general age wear and discoloration. The cover grades VG. Also included is the memo from Capitol Records Distributing Corp. that was sent to all distributors soon after the initial release. It explains the rationale for the recall, asking all distributors to return all the copies they received. See Photo. The vinyl shows multiple light paper scuffs, none of which significantly impact play. It plays through beautifully with just very light background noise throughout. The vinyl grades VG.

Grading Information

I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay. I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible. I do both a visual check and an audio check. I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can. I don t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive.

I use four grades in my grading: NM, VG , VG, and G. The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or two small defects. It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static. On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you ll see more defects on this than your VG rated album. Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG , but the color or blemishes drop the grading. Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn t there. That s why I play every album first, because this does happen. In this case the vinyl will be graded VG. Occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G. This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy.

Shipping Information Combined Shipping

The shipping cost will be based on the weight of your package. For Media Mail, shipping is 5.00 in the continental U.S. In addition, I will happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost. In fact, I welcome it Shipping will be 5.00 in the U.S regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period.

Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates. Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. The first album will typically cost approximately 22. Additional albums will be shipped for 6 per album, with up to four pounds able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.

Shipments to outside the US and Canada will vary depending on your country. Typically the cost per album will be no more than 27. Combined shipping is welcome here as well, at a cost of 10 per additional album up to the maximum of four pounds.

All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening. The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve. I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments. If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day.

Thank you for looking and please contact me with any questions.
