John Lennon
Imagine
FIRST US PRESSING!
With printed inner sleeve!
Comes with the original poster and the rarer "pan flute" postcard!
Pressed at Capitol's Winchester, VA plant!
Records at this plant are of much higher quality than Capitol's other plants, and fewer were produced.
There were originally one of two possible postcards to find inside first pressings. There was the much more common "John with a pig" and there was the rarer "pan flute". The pan flute card is an altered Renaissance paining that depicts a satyr playing a pan flute with two women in a nearby tree. They added glasses to the satyr to make it look like John and pasted Yoko's head over one of the women in the tree.
It really is quite an odd picture.
Please see images.
