Black and Yellow Parlophone label with silver print: the name "THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD.(capital letter)" on the outer rim, the "SOLD IN U.K." remark, and the "(P) 1965" statement.
Beginning in 1964, Parlophone (and all the other EMI companies) began printing a phrase in the centers of all their singles, EP's and LP's, which said:
SOLD IN U.K. SUBJECT TO RESALE PRICE CONDITIONS, SEE PRICE LISTS.
This notice appears on the labels of every UK market EMI product, from very early 1964, right through mid-1969.
On 1st July 1965, EMI underwent a merger and each individual ceased to be a L.T.D. company and became a subsudialy of "The Gramophone Co. Ltd." which was owned by EMI. This merger meant yet another label change occurred and previous "Parlophone Co. Ltd." rims where replaced with the new "Gramophone" rims.
Sleeves for "Help! (mono)" did only one London’s of printing house: Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. The word "mono", on upper right of the front cover, is medium size and outline type.
Side 2: The publishing credit for "Act Naturally" says "Lark Mus." Later pressing was changed to "Lark Music". The top of the 2ND. line started the words "NCB."
The record will be sent via an insured courier in a padded vinyl mailer.
