Recorded on 28 November 1967 and sent out to fan club members on 15 December 1967, the fifth Christmas fan club flexi is presented by way of skits of radio and television shows of the time. It also features snippets of the song Christmas Time Is Here Again which is credited to all four Beatles and can be heard in full on the Free As A Bird single. It is a one sided disc playing at 33 1/3 RPM and is housed in a picture sleeve designed by John, Ringo and Julian Lennon. It is on the Lyntone label, catalogue number LYN 1360. The fan club’s Christmas 1967 National Newsletter was also included with it
You’ll see from the pictures below that my copy is in good to very good condition. The sleeve is intact with no writing or tears, just a little rubbing and feathering at the opening. The disc has a couple of dints and a light scratch and appears to have a slight warp (thoughyou can’t really tell with these flexis with them being so floppy). The label is very clean and free from any writing. Unfortunately I don’t yet have the newsletter that originally came with it which reduces it’s value.
Estimated Value : £70 – £100
