Unhappy about the efforts Capitol were making in promoting this single, John Lennon decided to commission this promo 45 himself.
Pressed on styrene, very few were made or distributed and very few examples survive.
This genuine 1971 promo is on the white Apple label and bears the wording 'NOT FOR SALE FOR RADIO STATION PLAY ONLY' on both sides.
Hand-etched run-out inscriptions:-
Side 1: S-45X-47663-Z11
Side 2: S-45X-47664-Z11
'Bellsound' is machine stamped into each run-out along with the hand-etched initials 'SF'.
Housed in an original glossy Apple company sleeve.
CONDITION
Vinyl: NEAR MINT
Perfectly clean & unblemished labels with unworn playing surfaces which bear a few wispy paper hairlines visible directly beneath halogen light only.
Cover: NEAR MINT
