COMMENTS

The Beatles' UK-made singles were also exported to neighboring European countries, where there were no domestic presses.  At that time, the record itself was diverted from the UK domestic version, and only the jacket was used for each country.

Early copies in Sweden came with a U.K. disc, later to be replaced by domestic pressings.
The sleeve can be found with either blue or red print.

(*) Skandinaviska Grammophon AB (SGAB):
It was a Swedish record company founded in 1903, subsidiary of the English The Gramophone Co. It changed its name in 1967 to Electric & Musical Industries Ltd Svenska AB, which 10 years later was shortened to EMI Svenska AB. The company was shut down in 2006. During its entire operation, it was one of the dominant Swedish record companies.
