"A Hard Day's Night" looked like this in France Another french variation: "Please Please Me" "Deutscher Schallplattenclub" A german record club, was big on issuing records with different sleeves than elsewhere in the world.

This german LP is probably one of the rarest from that country. Another record club edition. Luc Porte gave us the photo. And pictures from the presentation of "Our world" must have been popular in Germany. A different sleeve than depicted on page 1, but still the same content and country, Germany.
 

 

Another german compilation, this one was released with an Apple label at first ...but Apple refused, so it had to be withdrawn and released with an Odeon label instead the one with the Apple label is of course the most sought after.
 

Not to be outdone by the germans, Holland issued this record as once again a record club release.  The Dutch "Rock'n'Roll Music" LP's on MFP had a background to the Beatles, where in the UK these had been grey. The Swedish "Greatest Hits" from 1965 was the twin of the danish "Hottest Hits", with the same songs and even the same release no.

A Beatles tray... ca.1963-64 What a Beatles tray might have looked like... in 2001. How's this for a greek mono "Sgt Pepper"? from Luc Porte
