Notes

- Black rainbow label, without "subsidiary" rim text:
The Rainbow label was in use until 1969, but from mid-1968 with a written addition on the label Edge.
- Trunk cover:
After the catastrophe of The Beatles - Yesterday And Today the so-called butcher cover, this was released with a new and innocent cover, the so-called ''trunk cover''. At the first edition, the Butcher cover was simply glued over with the Trunk cover. This version is the first edition to be produced original with the trunk cover.
- Pressing-plant-number:
The "8 " stands for the Capitol press plant in Scranton, PA, when it comes to this release. This can cause confusion because the "8 " usually stands for Decca for Beatles releases. As far as I know, Decca was not involved in the "Yesterday ... and today " publications. The numbers were probably different in the individual LP. Scranton also used the number 3 for all mono-LP, and other numbers for all stereo LP (2, 12, 21).
- "I AM" triangle:
A machine stamped triangle with the initials IAM indicates that the record was pressed at the Scranton, Pennsylvania plant. "IAM" stood for the International Association of Machinists' union whose members worked at the Scranton plant. It first took effect on Scranton pressings around February, 1963.       *Mint [M]: Absolutely perfect in every way - certainly never played, possibly even still sealed. (More on still sealed below). Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.   *Near Mint [NM or M-]: A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record shows no obvious sign of wear. An LP jacket has no creases, folds, seam splits or any other noticeable similar defect. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same is true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, and the like. Basically, Near Mint looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. *Excellent (EX)  - Might have a hard to see blemish, tiny hairline, perhaps played once basically looks almost new. *Very Good Plus [VG+]: Shows some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but is should be barely noticeable. The center hole is not misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turn-up corners, or a slight seam-split. An LP jacket my have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable.
 *Very Good [VG]: Many of the defects found in a VG+ record are more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during the song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.   Good [G], Good Plus [G+]: Good does not mean bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear.
