Description
Up for auction this time is truly a rare Beatles collectible. It is the rare misprinted first issue of the 3rd revised STEREO label. The story goes like this: In 1964, Capital records released "The Beatles Second Album". The initial 1st run labels for this LP (which are the most commonly found) do not have the running times for "Long Tall Sally" or "I Call Your Name" on side 2. But after Capital received the tapes for these two tracks, the company revised the label copy by adding the times for these two songs. This would be the 2nd run label. When the BMI credit replaced the ASCAP credit for the song "I Call Your Name", Capital once again revised it's label copy, BUT ONLY ON THE STEREO LABELS! The printer for the east coast stereo label not only changed ASCAP to BMI after "I Call Your Name", but also dropped the running time for the song. Thus, this stereo variation has the running time for "Long Tall Sally", but NOT "I Call Your Name"! BUT WAIT!!! These revised labels also have "I Call Your Name" misprinted as "I Call You Name"! This label was just discovered and not documented in Bruce Spizer's great book "The Capital Years". This record has been play graded at a solid VG to VG+ with no scratches or skips. Just some light surface noise between tracks. The cover is VG+ with no writing, stains or tears. The only defect is on the bottom edge near the opening where there is a 1/4" split. Cover is a #2 east coast pressing. Record comes with original blue paper liner. Postage for continental U.S. residents is $6.00. Foreign bidders please contact me for quotes.
