All Photographs are of the actual items being offered. ( I DO NOT use stock photo’s )

                                                   THE BEATLES. 
I am pleased to offer for sale this superb UPGRADE example  of THE BEATLES Official UK Fan Club 
                     “ FOURTH CHRISTMAS RECORD “      Including the Original Christmas 1966 UK Fan Club Newsletter
                                                    “ PANTOMIME “                                            ( “Everywhere It’s Christmas “ )
This the Fourth UK Fan Club Christmas Record has a sleeve designed by Paul McCartney. Unlike previous productions this the 1966 disc does not include actual Christmas greetings From The Beatles. Instead the boys devised this Pantomime format idea. The back of the card sleeve lists the titles to the eleven selections featured on the disc. The record was packaged with the UK Fan Club National Newsletter for Christmas 1966 Which is devoted almost exclusively to describing the recording and distribution of the Record. It also has the lyrics to two songs contained on the disc.
As is now well known these Fan Club Xmas Flexi Discs were not available in record  retail outlets as they were only available  to all current Fan Club members and sent out free towards the end of December 1966,
