Famous Beatles ‘Butcher’ Album Cover Sells For $2500 On Ebay

When we made our list of the 10 Most Shocking Album Covers recently, it was an automatic that the infamous Beatles ‘Butcher’ cover would make the cut (oops, possible intended pun there). The memorable album cover is a prized collector piece that pops up from time to time and one of them just sold recently for $2500 on eBay.Looking at the photo, which features the members of the Beatles posing with a whole bunch of meat and also, um, (fake) decapitated babies, it’s evident that shooting the pictures for the original cover for ‘Yesterday and Today’ was probably a really fun photo session.
