your biggest find may be the beatles yesterday and today.
Do you know the story behind this controversial album?

It was released around the Vietnam war and originally had the beatles sitting with a bunch of baby doll parts.
This caused outrage and immediately halted production to replace with a new album cover which you have there.

before they released the new album cover they had a surplus of the old cover so they made stickers to place over all these albums so they could sell them.

I have a framed one that has the sticker peeled off that reveals the banned album cover but was told that this album with the sticker over the old album that has not been pulled off is worth a pretty penny.


Please google before you sell.

Yes, I know. The butcher album is one of my holy grails/Moby Dicks. I’ve been hunting one in the wild for 20+ years.
I put “IYKYK” just above the photo in OP.
My heart did skip a beat when I saw it, but as soon as I saw the gold stamp, I knew it wasn’t a butcher cover.

He knows. Thus his “IYKYK” comment.

It’s his holy grail album.
