Description
THE BEATLES ULTRA SUPER RARE '68 **MONO** HEY JUDE/REVOLUTION CANADA WITH RARELY SEEN WHITE BEATLES APPLE CANADIAN SLEEVE
Stunning MONO 1968 Hey Jude 45, shows clean labels with NO writing, NO stickers, and NO tears/rips. The vinyl is very nice with only very minor hairlines which is understandable, being over 50 years old !
The super rare sleeve is nice with NO seam splits, NO taped splits, NO rips, NO tears and NO price stickers. At the very bottom right on the back of the sleeve is some faint white substance (see photo)
The paper stock of these sleeves are less then half as thick as that of the Black sleeves, and that is why not many of these are known to exist today. Most got easily ripped and were immediately thrown out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Jude was the very LAST MONO 45 to be issued by The Beatles in Canada on Aug 26 1968. Apple Canada had the sliced side of the apple rotated such that the text was horizontally written across the sliced apple with the stem pointing straight out at the right of the label, as opposed to the US where the stem points towards the top. Apple was introduced in Canada through a special event where they were presented the first 4 Apple singles which included Hey Jude.
These four 45s were pressed by both RCA and Compo, with RCA using the thin font and Compo having a much thicker font. Out of the first 4 Apple singles, only Hey Jude was pressed by RCA, due to high demand. This one being offered here for sale is the RCA pressing with rare white APPLE sleeve
