RECORD IS IN HAND.  SHIPS WITHIN 24 HOURS OF PURCHASE (Except on holidays). Paul McCartney is set to celebrate the third anniversary McCartney III with the limited run vinyl version of McCartney III — 3×3 Edition, on Capitol Records. McCartney III — 3×3 Edition will be released in three randomly distributed configurations, each featuring one of three unique combinations of multi-color vinyl and prints of Paul’s handwritten draft lyrics or of his hand-drawn album artwork sketch: the Tri-color vinyl + “Pretty Boys” lyric draft; the Three-striped vinyl + album artwork sketch; and the Swirl vinyl + “The Kiss of Venus” lyric draft.
Additionally, all copies of 
McCartney III — 3×3 Edition will feature new cover art and will include a poster of Ed Ruscha’s hand-sketched draft for the original McCartney III album artwork.
A brand new limited-edition pressing of McCartney III celebrating the third anniversary of the album’s release. Each copy includes:

One of three unique tri-colored LPs plus print handwritten by Paul
New cover artwork plus Ed Ruscha sketch poster
Variant selected at random for each purchase These limited edition colored vinyl albums will be still sealed to preserve their value.  Consequently, I will not know which of the three configurations you will be getting AND you will not know which you have - unless/until you decide to open it.  As most completists will want all three configurations and will quickly open the album to see which one they've received, I predict UNopened copies will quickly be very hard to find - and thus, more valuable.  Of course you CAN open it and enjoy whichever vinyl configuration you've received, and collect all three variants, if you like.  The choice is completely yours.  I am selling 3 copies - so potentially you could be getting one of each, should you choose to purchase all three.  Again, which configuration you receive, will be unknown until you open the shrink wrap.

Originally released December 18, 2020, McCartney III is the third in a trilogy of home-made self-titled albums that began with Paul’s milestone 1970 solo debut McCartney, and continued in 1980 with the bold, experimental McCartney II. All three albums were written, performed and produced by Paul in varying states of isolation, all showcasing his unique creativity and inspired spontaneity. Recorded in “Rockdown” in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, McCartney III saw Paul turn unexpected time on his hands into an opportunity to get into the studio on his own. An intimate and revelatory record, McCartney III features Paul’s melodic gift at its forefront throughout. Upon release, McCartney III charted at #1 on both the UK’s Official Album Charts and Billboard’s Top Album Sales Chart.
