FROM ALAN LIVINGSTON, THE MAN WHO SIGNED
THE BEATLES TO CAPITOL RECORDS, WE PRESENT ONE OF THE
MOST ULTIMATE COLLECTIBLE ALBUMS OF ALL TIME.

A "livingston" copY is an item most COLLECTORS consider
the ultimate Beatle record to own. The "LIVINGSTON" issues
are now considered "PEDIGREE" copies, significant not only
for their incredible condition but for the source and
original owner being the former president of Capitol RECORDS.
sadly, mr. livingston passed away
on march 13, 2009, at the age of 91.

THIS BUTCHER IS HIS VERY LAST PERSONAL ALBUM
HE OWNED AND KEPT FROM 1966 UNTIL 2002 -
AND NOW - WE ARE HONORED TO HAVE OBTAINED IT FROM THE
ORIGINAL OWNER WHO HAD ACQUIRED IT IN 2002 FROM MR. LIVINGSTON.
