Whoa.

Ringo's auctioning the very first copy of The Beatles White Album.
Apparently Starr’s kept the record in a bank vault in London for over 35 years and has finally decided to bring it out for auction. The starting bid? $20,000. 

As Dangerous Minds explains, it’s widely accepted that copies one to four are in the possession of the four Beatles’ members. But it’s also been assumed that No. 0000001 belongs to John Lennon. It’s even an assumption shared by Paul McCartney, who said Lennon “shouted loudest”. As it turns out, Ringo owns the copy and And now a well-heeled Beatles’ collector has the chance to buy it. 
Starts at $20k??!  Now THAT'S a joke.

"But Xmastime", you say in the voice of Craig “Ironhead” Heyward from those soap commercials (RIP), “don't you have a 14-song single album version of the White album?"

OF COURSE I HAVE A 14-SONG SINGLE ALBUM VERSION OF THE WHITE ALBUM!!!
