Silver Parlophone and
A.K.A. "Banner" STEREO label. The label has a second line of rim print reading, "Made in Australia by E.M.I. (Australia) Limited." Housed in a twin-flipback printed cover. Have the gold and black stereo sticker. Blue text was utilised on both sides of the sleeve; not out of any determination to make the sleeve uniquely Australian but simply because it was cheaper to have blue text than black. Australian "Please Please Me" stereo labels all include commas, where grammatically correct, in the following track titles: Side-1.7 Please, Please Me Side-2.3 Baby, It's You *N.S.W.=New South Wales Silver Banner Parlophone Label:
