UBER HOLY GRAIL RARE WHITE LABEL PROMOTIONAL RELEASE WITH EVEN MORE RARE " RINGO'S THEME " HYPE STICKER

FOR THE RELEASE OF THE FIRST BEATLES MOVIE AND THE SOUNDTRACK ALBUM, UNITED ARTISTS PRESSED A LIMITED NUMBER OF MONO PROMOTIONAL SOUNDTRACK ALBUMS.

IN STARK CONTRAST TO THE RELEASED VERSION OF THE BLACK LABEL BACKDROPS WHICH FEATURED WHITE PRINT AND THE UNITED ARTISTS LOGO CONTAINING A SERIES OF OVERLAPPING CIRCLES IN VARIOUS COLORS, THE PROMOTIONAL PRESSINGS UTILIZED BLACK PRINT ON STARK WHITE LABELS. THE PHRASE "NOT FOR SALE" APPEARS BELOW THE RECORD NUMBER TO THE RIGHT OF THE CENTER HOLE.

THIS PRESSING OFFERED HERE (UA3366.DJ1A, SPIZER) IS THE COLUMBIA RECORDS VARIATION, PRESSED AT ITS FACTORY IN PITMAN, NEW JERSEY - AND/OR POSSIBLY IN BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT

THIS RECORD IS EXTREMELY RARE FOR THREE REASONS:1. ACCORDING TO RENOWNED BEATLES AUTHOR BRUCE SPIZER, IT IS BELIEVED THAT LESS THAN 500 COPIES OF THIS PROMOTIONAL SOUNDTRACK
    ALBUM WERE PRESSED AND DISTRIBUTED ONLY TO SELECTED RADIO STATIONS.
2. DUE TO THE FACT THAT THESE RECORDS WERE SOLELY INTENDED TO PROMOTE THE MOTION PICTURE, MOST DISC JOCKEYS DID NOT SAVE THESE
    RECORDS AFTER THE FILM HAD RUN ITS COURSE.
3. THIS IS THE ONLY ORIGINALLY RELEASED BEATLES ALBUM THAT WAS PRODUCED AS A PROMOTIONAL "NOT FOR SALE" ISSUE. VEE-JAY OR CAPITOL
    RECORDS NEVER DID.

THE ORIGINAL ACCOMPANYING MONO COVER IS THE CORRECT VARIATION, WHICH IS THE FIRST ISSUE BACK COVER CONTAINING THE "3 LINE PUBLISHING CREDITS"-

Promo label is black on white with "NOT FOR SALE" under the matrix number.
The mono mixes on some tracks are different to those on the regular UK mono album.
A3 (I'll Cry Instead) erroneously titled ''I Cry Instead'' on rear sleeve and label.Black rainbow label without "subsidiary" rim print.
