EMI originally issued the Beatles UK albums on cassette tape with re-arranged running orders, the excuse being the need to have two sides of equal length to avoid the problem of listeners stopping the tape at the end of one side and turning over to start mid-way through the opening track on the reverse. These were the first Beatles cassettes to be manufactured by EMI themselves at their newly-opened (July, 1970) tape duplicating facilities at Hayes in Middlesex. Previously, the Dutch electronics giant, Phillips, had made them for EMI. All came with bright yellow paper label cassettes, their I international catalogue numbers, and the newly designed, black box, EMI/Parlophone logo - although some were issued without the logo due to a lack of expensive letterpress blocks. The front and reverse of the inlays came in the "white inlay" design, for which the Let It Be inlay design of June 1970 was the template. Note the 7010 (or 7009) notation on the inside inlay followed by either EJD, G&L or DP. This was the number of the month/year of issue, followed by the printers initials ( Ernest J Day, Garrod & Lofthouse or Data Packaging).

The two exceptions to this generally adopted style for the white inlays was Revolver - which had a black background above the front cover album picture with no TC-PCS-7009 and a black coloured inlay spine with it, and The Beatles White album, which had its tracklisting on the front foldover where normally the advertising for the other albums would be. (*1) EMI country code: 1E 262 o 04219 The EMI country codes (introduced on 1 June, 1969): In most cases the EMI Codes are the first two letters of the record's catalog#.
