Sleeves for "With The Beatles (mono)" did two London’s of printing house: Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd. and Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. This issue has a sleeve made by Ernest J. Day & Co Ltd.

The matrix"-1N" cuttings of the mono UK "With The Beatles" are reported to be different from subsequent versions (so-called "Loud Cut"), in that after they were issued, the EMI cutting engineers were requested to cut down on the bass, since early buyers complained of skipping needles due to mistracking.
Side 2: Sleeve and label incorrectly spells track 3 as "YOU REALLY GOTTA HOLD ON ME"
Side 2: The publishing credit for "Money" says "Jobete Mus. NCB"

Record in very good condition.
Some writing on the back of the sleeve stating name and address of original owner and a small AW on bottom right on the back of the sleeve. The o's in George Harrison and John Lennon have been coloured in aswell as the A's in Paul Mccartney and R's in Ringo Starr. All can be seen on pictures.
