COMMENTS
Originally released in INDIA and pressed at the DUM DUM pressing plant near Calcutta.

Yellow Parlophone label type-3:
"Made in India by The Gramophone Co., Ltd."  was printed at the outer rim.
"Regd. Td. Mk. of The Parlophone Co., Ltd." was printed at the center of the label.

The LP cover is a gatefold. To remove the disk from the cover, you have to open the gatefold and slide the disk out from the left.

The orange blog on the front cover is actually Tony Bramwell’s hand – as he was holding back tree branches for the photo shoot.
The back photo is not a simple picture – The Beatles image was cropped and superimposed over a background of leaves.
