Elastic Oz Band God Save Us UK Card Sleeve Apple 36 NEAR MINT Condition

	£		36
	$		48

Description

"God Save Us" was first demoed by John Lennon, but the lead singer on the recording was Bill Elliot for contractual reasons. "God Save Us"/"Do The Oz" was released on The Beatles' Apple Records label by the Elastic Oz Band in 1971.

 

For auction is the fabulous picture sleeve for the Apple 36 UK single release. 

 

IMPORTANT – THIS IS THE SLEEVE ONLY AND DOES NOT HAVE THE RECORD.

 

This sleeve has never housed the 7” record as it was sent to a record shop for display purposes in 1971.  It has been in flat storage since 1971 and is in amazing condition. There are none of the usual record ring marks on the front or back or any other tears, rips, writing or blemishes. The sleeve is not faded.  I have classified the sleeve as near mint but others would describe it as mint – it really is in superb condition. There are 2 photos (front and back) uploaded.

 

The sleeve is matt and has a double wrap around to the rear.

 

I doubt there are many copies of this sleeve in better condition than this one since it has been in flat storage for 40 years and never included a 7” record.

 

This sleeve would suite a purchaser who already has a 7” vinyl copy of the record with no sleeve or someone who is looking to upgrade their sleeve. 

 

I am very particular with my gradings and have a 100% feedback so you can buy with confidence.

 

Many thanks for looking at this item and good luck if you decide to make a bid.  Again for avoidance of doubt this is the UK Apple picture sleeve only and does not include the 7" vinyl.
