THE MOST AMAZING BEATLES ALBUM IN THE WORLD: 
THE CANADIAN BUTCHER COVER

Only two butcher covers from Canada are known to exist. The one here was the very first ever found. When it first appeared, many "expert" Beatles dealers scoffed and insisted it could not be real. They don't say that anymore. Several months after this cover appeared, Paul White, the man who was in charge of Capitol of Canada in the 1960s sold his only copy to a dealer who then turned around and sold it to another collector. A photo of that one along with an explanatory letter from Paul White appears in Book 2 of The Beatles Story on Capitol Records by Bruce Spizer.

Looks pretty much like the US one with a couple of differences. First, the cover slick is laminated with a thin plastic. Second, the words LITHO IN CANADA (see detail) appear along the front lower right edge. Also, the back cover pictures the first three Canadian rather than the US Beatles albums.

Truth is stranger than fiction sometimes, and the full story behind this one is nothing short of amazing. Watch these pages for further details!
