| This label has a slender printing type.
Another label type was printed in the "Roman" type. Notice; 1) Early copies have the song title "DR. ROBERT" on side-2. Afterward, they discovered the imperfection on this title and changed "DOCTOR ROBERT". But, the title on the album cover still remained. 2) About the song title of the 4th song on side-1, this label was printed "Love You To". But "Silver Parlophone Label (Two EMI marks/Stereo)" was printed "love You Too" instead of "Love You To", however, the title on the album cover still remained. |

The photo on the back cover is backwards. It was taken in Tokyo, Japan in 1966; the clue is on Paul's kimono-the lettering is backwards. Japanese issue of the LP have corrected the photo. | |

Black/yellow Parlophone label with silver print: the name "THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD..." on the outer rim, the "SOLD IN U.K..." remark, and the "(P) 1967" statement. The LP covers is laminated on both front and back, and is also laminated fully on the inside. The cover was one piece of material, with fold over flaps connecting across the top-inside cover. The gatefold has two openings, the left one holding a sheet of Sgt. Pepper cutouts, and the right one holding the LP itself, housed in a custom inner sleeve with graduating shades of pink to red colors. These copies mistitled the track "With a little help from..." as "A little help from..." on back cover. |
