Notes

The first laminated gatefold cover was printed by Garrod and Lofthouse. The time in between the decission on how the cover should look like and the actual manufacturing was probably very short. They had no time to wait for the Patent to be registered so they had to put the "Patent Pending" text next to the name (http://www.stonesondecca.com/4A11_SKL4955_Beggars.html).
Beggars Banquet was released at the end of 1968, when the mono production in UK was at the end.
This is why it is more common to find this text on stereo cover.

For the above reason, the text "Patent Pending" identify the very earliest mono cover.

Dark red 'unboxed' Decca label with silver lettering; full frequency range recording 'ffrr' 'ear' logo.
On this release the label design has, inverted above the cat.#, the matrix number with no brackets.
The GEMA caption has no full stops in between the characters. 
Side indication on the labels on the right hand side of the spindle hole.
No tax code on labels.

Matrix 4A/2A are the lowest known for this UK release.
