The sleeve looks to be a repro from the 1970's; however, it may have been attached to the record at a later date. The record is not a late 1970's fake. I would have to see the record itself to know for sure whether it's a real one. |

I have seen the stamped LA star/asterisk on a number of counterfeits including this promo. The lLA pressing mark is often cited as an indicator of a genuine item. However, it alone cannot be trusted. A side by side comparison is best, but impossible when buying on eBay. As an aside I think counterfeits hold down the prices for the genuine item on eBay. |

This copy is definitely genuine. I can see the glossiness of the label, and the label is the right color. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BEATLES-strawberry...=item233dee4708 |
