![]() ![]() |
In
July 1969, Capitol switched to a limecolored label
featuring its new circle logo at the top. The outer "C"
is purple and the circle representing the record is
black. The initial lime labels have a TM designation following the word Capitol. After the trade mark for the logo was secured, the TM marking was switched to the (R) symbol, which appears below the "I" in Capitol. The lime-background circle logo label was used for Capitol Beatles albums until late spring, 1971. In May, 1971, Capitol redesigned their mainline label to use a more striking red background. The purple āCā logo remained at the top of the label. The registered trademark symbol appears to the right of the word "Capitol." This label appeared on Capitol records numbered from about 682 (May 1971) to about 838 (October 1971). Since the Beatles' catalog switched to Apple that same month, only a few rare specimens survive with this label style: some copies of Revolver and at least two copies of Yesterday...And Today. |
