1976 "Country Flag"
obi / EAS re-issue series of the Beatles Japanese LP
catalog. Issue n° 28 in the series, with Japanese flag obi. The Japanese-only release "Beatles No. 5", using similar front art to the US jacket for "Beatles '65" but different title and track line-up. Apple white label (promotional use only). The design of Apple white labels deffers markedly from commercial Apple LPs. Promo versions eliminate perimeter print and feature a line drawing of the Apple logo at the label top. All print is black. Notice the promo characters inside a rectangle to the left of the Apple logo. The words "MFD. BY TOSHIBA-EMI LTD. JAPAN" was printed at the below of the group's name. Promo copies were sometimes sent in generic EMI Sample Record covers. In Japan, promotional records have traditionally been provided at no charge to radio stations, record shops, and the mass media to increase the sales of a record or in some cases to promote a tour. There are two types of promotional releases. Type-1: This type is called the white label promo for which a unique label has been made. The design of Apple white labels deffers markedly from commercial Apple LPs. Promo versions eliminate perimeter print and feature a line drawing of the Apple logo at the label top. All print is black. Notice the promo characters inside a rectangle to the left of the Apple logo. Most usually, the regular cover is used with appropriate alterations to prohibit commercial sale. Promo copies were sometimes sent in generic EMI Sample Record covers. Type-2: The second type of promo record is less elaborate and is called a sticker promo. It is simply a regular commercial release that has a promo sticker affixed to the cover. This type of promo is occasionally found on post-1975 releases. The obi: Country flag obi. This style Obi came into use in June 1976 to promote the EAS series of Beatles reissues. It is a wide Obi that has the flag of the country of the LP's origin at the top. The LP's series number is located on the Apple logo and at an angle at the bottom. Has a red background. Country Flag Obi series, which was reissued in 1976, has been released in three parts. >1st time: 5 June, 1976 >2nd. time: 20 June, 1976 >3rd. time: 5 July, 1976. Each time, the back of the Obi changes little by little.
