Notes

Capitol Records Pressing Plant, Jacksonville press denoted by "O" stamp in runouts.

This is considered cover version #3 (pasted slick over cardboard).
Label has "MFD. BY APPLE RECORDS, INC" in green print at the bottom perimeter of side 1.
"Her Majesty" is listed on the Side 2 label but NOT on the cover.

An E.M.I recording.

Cover photo is enlarged/cropped so that the manhole cover is NOT seen at the bottom of the photo, as it is in other printings of the cover.

Abbey Road was the only Beatles album to have print-on-board covers upon initial release. When Capitol's pressing plants ran out of the print-on-board covers, Apple hired Queens Litho to print slicks for these THIRD (and final) BATCH Covers (SC2A, Spizer).

The back cover slicks were made from the album's original artwork and accordingly do not list Her Majesty on the back cover. The front cover image was enlarged to allow for the front slick to be wrapped around to the back cover. Thus, the picture on the front shows less of the trees and crosswalk (the square sewer in the road is missing) and has a larger image of the Beatles.
