- 1966 issue of the Beatles' "Yesterday and Today" album, with new cover issued in 1966 after "butcher" cover
- The original cover, which featured the band in butcher costumes holding dismembered plastic baby dolls, caused significant controversy upon its release in North America. Although the photo was intended to be part of a larger work critiquing the adulation afforded the Beatles, the band members insisted it was a statement against the Vietnam War. Others interpreted it as the Beatles protesting the record company's policy of "butchering" their albums for the North American market. In response to retailers' concern over the gory subject matter, Capitol immediately withdrew the LP and replaced the cover image with a shot of the band posed around a steamer trunk
