The Beatles ULTRA RARE “Beatles V1” Record Club St-8-2358 Nice VG/VG+

Description: TITLE: The Beatles ULTRA RARE “Beatles V1” Record Club St-8-2358 Nice VG/VG+ RECORD: BEATLES’ Your looking at what I believe to be the rarest Beatles “Record Club” lp. Beatles V1 St-8-2358 Originally, Capitol's own record club pressed their records in Scranton and offered up only Capitol-related releases. Special issues (numbered in the 90000 series) were also pressed for the club at Scranton. Aside from these "club only" releases, the record club products were indistinguishable from the records that Capitol sent to be sold in stores. Capitol advertised in the popular magazines of the day, including Life and Look, indicating that if you agreed to buy several records, not only would you get them at bargain prices, but also you would automatically be sent a popular record in your chosen genre each month without having to order it. Some people found these "selections of the month" to be useful, while others were annoyed by this practice – one which Capitol shared with the other record clubs. The first Beatles-related "special" record to be made by the record club was a five inch flexi disc that advertised the club. Originally packaged in an envelope featuring a photograph of each Beatle, it was the accompanying letter that explained that you could get six albums (in mono or stereo) for free if you joined the club. The flexi itself, made by Eva-Tone, contains an edited version of the Beatles' rendition of "Roll Over Beethoven," which appeared in the USA on the Beatles' Second Album.
