David Bowie, Diamond Dogs (1974)
We doubt that Guy Peellaert, who worked on the Diamond Dogs album cover, knew that his painting would make it so big. This version of the Bowie RCA release was not intended to come out. The label allegedly got nervous when they noticed that the back album cover showed the lower half of a dog! They airbrushed it before releasing the album. Some employees took off with the originals, however. A copy once went for $3,550 on eBay in 2003. We bet you can get a higher price for it these days!

The Beatles — Abbey Road (1969)
If you have this rare version of this classic by The Beatles, you can fetch $4,000 for it. Check if your copy has the black and yellow Parlophone Records label tag. If it does, you have the rare UK export! The catalog number should be PPCS 7088. Abbey Road, their 11th studio album, initially got mixed reviews when it was released. It is now considered one of the greatest records in rock history! Rolling Stone even ranked it 14th on their “500 Greatest Records of All Time” list.
