The changes in company sleeve designs were similar to those of
the other EMI labels and the changes between the different designs
occurred at approximately the same times. There were no picture sleeves for the singles in the MSP number series. For the (45-)R-series there were a few promo picture sleeves and probably only two singles released with picture sleeves before 1975. Both of these picture sleeves are The Beatles' singles.
