Vinyl: BEATLES BUTCHER COVER THE "HOLY GRAIL" T- 2553 Near Mint Slick!

This Butcher Slick is NM with no signs of glue residue or peel off.. It is an RIAA #6 (LA Pressing) which is notorious for using a stronger glue to adhere the slick than the other locations, which makes it more amazing that this is as Near Mint a slick as you can find. Now for the negative points: There is a name written on the back and the spine and sides show indications of flaking and splitting. But the true value in the Butcher cover is the condition of the slick...When framed, this is a most perfect example of one of the most sought after album covers ever! I just sold a NM 1st state that had the slick graded as VG+++ to NM, and in comparison I believe this to be at the high end of Near Mint...The vinyl is not included...album cover only...
