COMMENTS		Between 1960 and 1987, Capitol Records of Canada issued the unique 6000 series of LP records for the Canadian market. The series encompasses the very best of Canadian popular music of the era, as well as an incredibly broad range of the very best European and American EMI artists tailored for the unique tastes of the Canadian record buying public, including The Beatles early and later Canadian-only releases. Early editions are RCA-pressed () with a Parr's Printing () sleeve, disc is mastered in Canada. Early editions in loose wrap, with or without Capitol / Pathe inner sleeve. EMI Music Canada lists original release date as 1963 January 13 * (DISAGREE) The 3rd. February, 1964 release date comes from Paul White’s own records. Early copies were sold with a black and white promotional picture with "exclusive Capitol Records recording stars" written on the bottom. There are two jacket variations from early 1964. 1) The earlier version has no dash in the 6054 catalogue number on the top seam, with the number slightly smaller in size, and no Parr's logo on the front cover. 2) Soon after, blueprints were corrected to add the dash in the catalog number, and to add the Parr's logo on the front slcik. A few early copies featured an orange sticker on the loose wrap, and a free Beatles promotional photo. All of these copies contain the disc with XEX-455 and XEX-456 with no dashes in the runouts. Many thanks to Gilles Valiquette of Montreal for highlighting these earlier jackets. The first three Beatles LPs issued by Canadian Capitol (6051, 6054, and 6063) were re-issued at least 6 times between the early 1960s and the mid-1980s using the black/rainbow, black/rainbow with brackets around the word Canada on the label perimeter print, red target (early 1970s), orange (mid-1970s), purple (late 1970s), and finally a «retro» black/rainbow label (early 1980s). Later re-issues post the mid-1970s used an «ST» prefix to denote «stereo». () RCA Pressings: RCA Victor in Toronto was the company that Capitol of Canada used in the 1960s and 1970s to create the pressing masters when none were provided by Capitol USA or when one of the USA metal parts wore out. Mr. Fred Burchill and Mr. Graham Newton were the two RCA Toronto engineers who manned RCA’s Scully lathe at the 225 Mutual Street office between1963 and 1965 to create the masters for the Canadian Capitol Beatles LPs from the first LP Beatlemania through to Beatles 65. Graham Newton’s initials (GN) often appear in the run out area of these mid 1960s LPs as well as on Canadian Capitol 45s like Ticket To Ride / Yes It Is (Capitol 5407). (*) Parr's Printing: Printing company Used By Capitol Records of Canada. The Parr’s logo is a capital P underscored by a line under the Parr’s name below it, boxed in a thick square. On the album covers the mention “Litho in Canada” was found to the left of the logo. Capitol of Canada used one primary printer between the late 1950s and 1968 and this was Parr’s. Sleeves printed by Parr’s housed records from the RCA plant as well as the Decca / Compo plant.
