A new, limited edition box set of The Beatles‘ ‘Christmas Records’ will be released next month.

The new collection is due to be released on December 15, and will feature the seven special holiday recordings that were originally mailed to members of the band’s fan club – known as “Beatle People” – from 1963 to 1969.

Each vinyl single comes in its own original flexi-disc sleeve artwork, with the box set also containing a 16-page booklet which includes recording notes and reproductions of the fan club’s ‘National Newsletters’ which were mailed to members.
