THE BEATLES
PENNY LANE / STRAWBERRY FIELDS
Original 1967
PROMOTIONAL/DEMO COPY
This is an extremely rare copy of Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever. Capitol records released this strictly promotional copy of the single on a lime green label, as P-5810. Beatles promo singles are among the most sought after promotional items the Beatles released, and this tremendous double A-side single is among the holy grails of promotional collectibles.
The labels are in Near Mint+ condition, with no noticeable wear whatsoever. The vinyl itself shows little to no signs of wear, and was played through once to make sure there were no pops or skips. Overall, this is a must-have piece for any Beatles vinyl fanatic!
Feel free to contact me with any questions, and all vinyls are mailed in cardboard protective mailers.

Due to so much interest and many questions,
I wanted to provide some extra information about this great piece!
This was the very first promotional single Capitol records ever released! Often DJs would write on the labels or mark promo copies, but this single has remained in impeccable condition! I go by goldmine grading and try to be as open an honest as possible and the condition of this promo is truly amazing. Near Mint!
The trail off numbers on this promo are handwritten, not stamped.
On the Penny Lane side, the numbers are 45-45871 F1 and the Strawberry Fields side is 45-45870
There is also a little 'star' printed in the wax, indicating that it was pressed at the Capitol plant in Los Angeles.
And the coolest thing about this promo single - aside from everything else - is that Penny Lane ends with a trumpet solo that was cut from the final recording.

Good luck bidding and I hope this answers all your questions!
