On 8th March, when George Martin typed up the running order sheet for "PLEASE PLEASE ME", he mistakenly credited 4 songs(*) as being published by the "Dick James Mus. Co."
This is the list that went to the printers, from which the first incorrect batch of labels was made, for both the mono and stereo pressings.
The Second pressing (this record), the publishing credit had changed to "Northern Songs Ltd.".

Sleeves for "Please Please Me (mono)" were by two London’s of printing houses: Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd. and Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. The first and second issue has a sleeve made by Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd only - please see picture.

The cover photo was taken at EMI's former headquarters at Manchester Sq. by Angus McBean on 5th March 1963.
