If you’ve got $15,000 kicking around, you’ve got enough to place the opening bid on still-sealed, first-state Beatles Butcher Cover on the block at Heritage Auction Galleries this week.
A still-sealed, first-state Beatles butcher cover is expected to bring $30,000 or more at auction.
The firm’s 2011 February Beverly Hill Signature Music & Entertainment Auction closes in two phases, according to lot number. Session 1 closes at 3 p.m. central Friday, Feb. 18; Session 2 closes at noon Saturday, Feb. 19.
“This isn’t just a nice copy, as rare as that would be — it’s still factory-sealed and easily the finest copy we’ve ever seen,” the lot’s description reads. Heritage offered the now-famous “Livingston Copy” in 2006 that sold for more than $38,000. This copy, which includes three “recall letters” documenting the history of the cover, is expected to bring $30,000 or more.
The copy of “Yesterday and Today” comes with a letter from Beatles expert Perry Cox, who also declares that it’s the finest copy he’s ever seen.
Heritage is offering a handful of other records and related recording displays, including Beatles framed displays featuring the stamper and single for “Thank You Girl” and “Twist and Shout” (each estimated at $2,500+); Elvis Presley’s framed personal copy of “Elvis’ Christmas Album” (estimated value $2,500+); an experimental picture disc for “Elvis Recorded Live at Madison Square Garden” (estimated value $1,200+); a 14-disc boxed set of Mobile Fidelity’s “The Beatles: The Collection” (estimated value $1,000+).
