THE BEATLES Sgt. Pepper's... LP Parlophone UK Mono 1967 RARE FOURTH PROOF COVER
FOURTH PROOF COVER
This very very rare unique sleeve! The “Fourth Proof” sleeve represents the earliest possible pressing of the Sgt Pepper cover. The Fourth Proof was the final version of the various ‘prototypes’ that were explored by the Beatles when the cover was being designed. The cover (and text) was approved by the Beatles and an initial very small ‘test’ run was undertaken to make sure everything looked OK. This small test run is characterised by the inverted “Fourth Proof” text in the top right hand corner of the inner gatefold – just above George Harrison’s head. This is therefore the earliest possible ‘prototype’ (test pressing) cover. Same fold-back have can printed text “AR D1321? which was probably the reference number for the prototype text that was used.
A red and white ''psychedelic'' inner sleeve; (with wrinkles creases, split and writing on, se picture) A 'cut-outs' card insert (full-color, single-sided); A black and yellow label with ''The Gramophone Co.'' and ''Sold in the UK'' in the radius text.
