COMMENTS
In January of 1966, Odeon replaced their earlier label with a red label and their logo with a logo that more closely resembled the logos used in other countries. The red label appears on all Odeon releases of the time, but when France took up the EEC numbering in 1969, they stopped using the original catalog numbers on Beatles releases.

In the center shows the text "VERSINDEX BREVETE' S.G.D.G." on the back cover.
Original French order tag at the top of the back cover.
Red-label copies of LSO 101 through LSO 105 exist with either (S) in a circle or S by itself on the label.
