COMMENTS
Double LP with gatefold cover.
Black/Silver Parlophone label without white ink: "one EMI mark" type.
The company's name "THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD." was printed around the label, but there is no credit of nationality on the label.
This cover had outlets at its top, as it was called as the "Open Top" cover. Flaps inside the gatefold cover were visible at the left and the right sides.
It was issued with large poster and four glossy photos of each Beatle and sequentially numbered on lower right of front cover.

According to Mr. Ito's E-mail (Thanks!),
This record was probably released in Ireland.
There are two opinions;
1) This is original Ireland Press (1968 or 1969 released)
2) These copies were made for "Beatles Collection (BC13)" in 1978 Ireland, but finally this box set was used the UK. Edition, so these copies were cancelled.
