Approximately one million copies of this magazine were sold (initially released for sale with no return) by the publisher. After the backlash of the months old Lennon remarks, approximately 50-100,000 were reportedly returned for refund. Not a lot. There were assuredly some burned up in Southern fundamentalist and anti-Beatle bonfires which weren't as widespread as reported in media.

Guesstimate on the remainder would be at the half million mark. So allow for some collectors and some fan storage and you probably still have a few copies being held out there. But I'll venture to guess that due to the collectibility of something of that nature and other things of controversy going on in that in that issue (Paul McCartney uses the "N" Word, dear Lord!) a VG to NM copy could realize upwards of $1000-1500.00 or more. It's the Holy Grail of US paper media. It's the magazine version of the Butcher cover. Good luck finding one or congratulations if you own one.
