COMMENTS		Black Parlophone label with gold ink and "LONG PLAYING" curved across the top. At the center of the label, the word "STEREO" on gold ribbon was printed. The word "stereo", on upper right of the front cover, is large. There is the words in the box --"IMPORTANT This record is intended for use only on special stereophonic reproducers. ..."-- on upper right of the back cover. On 8th March, when George Martin typed up the running order sheet for "PLEASE PLEASE ME", he mistakenly credited 4 songs(*) as being published by the "Dick James Mus. Co." This is the list that went to the printers, from which the first incorrect batch of labels was made, for both the mono and stereo pressings. The Second pressing, the publishing credit had changed to "Northern Songs". It is not known as it has been much made copies of the first stereo press, but all copies have only two variants of codes of a stamp: 1G/1R or 1R/1G. Therefore the total of copies of the first stereo press could not be more than 600. Sleeves for Parlophone did two London’s of printing house: Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd. and Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. The first issue of "Please Please Me" has a sleeve made by Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd only. This stereo versions of "Love Me Do" have been created from the mono versions, because original master tapes are lost. The cover photo was taken at EMI's former headquarters at Manchester Sq. by Angus McBean on 5th March 1963.

On 1st July 1965, EMI underwent a merger and each individual ceased to be a L.T.D. company and became a subsudialy of "The Gramophone Co. Ltd." which was owned by EMI. This merger meant yet another label change occurred and previous "Parlophone Co. Ltd." rims where replaced with the new "Gramophone" rims. The word "stereo", on upper right of the front cover, is small-size. Sleeves for "With The Beatles (stereo)" did two London’s of printing house: Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd. and Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. "Small Steleo" issue has a sleeve made by "Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd." only (maybe). There is the words in the box --"IMPORTANT This record is intended for use only on special stereophonic reproducers. ..."-- on upper right of the back cover. Side 1: labeling is incorrectly credit track 6 as "Wilson". Side 2 labeling is corrected: Track 3 now spelled "YOU REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME". But, Sleeve incorrectly spells track 3 as "YOU REALLY GOTTA HOLD ON ME". The publishing credit for "Money" says "Dominion, Belinda (Ldn.) Ltd."

COMMENTS		Black and White Parlophone label with silver print: with two "EMI" marks, placed at the top and bottom, which are white with black print (reversed). The company's name "THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD" was printed on the outer rim and "(P) 1963" statement was printed on the label. Housed in a scarce front laminated, twin-flipback "Garrod & Lofthouse" printed cover without a stereo front indicator with "Patent No. 943,895" printed along the lower flipback. As sales of mono albums had dropped significantly relative to stereo albums, EMI deleted mono records, where there was a stereo alternative, in mid-1969. So, the word "stereo", on upper right of the front cover, is erased. (maybe)
