LP: Please Please Me
Parlophone PMCJ 1202 [Mono only] Republika Południowej Afryki
Matrix No. is: Side-1: XEX 421 / Side-2: XEX 422
These are the same number of U.K. pressings.
The Beatles
Materiał taki sam jak wydanie angielskie z 22.III.1963 r.

The Parlophone logomark was printed at the upper right corner of the front cover.

Catalog No. "PMCJ 1202" was printed on upper right corner of the back cover.

"Manufactured by EMI" credit and Printer's name "SWAN PRESS" were printed at the lower right corner of the back cover.

The three-dimensional Parlophone logo was printed at the botom of the back cover.

Black and silver Parlophone old style label Type-1


The rim print at the bottom is " PRESSED IN S.A. UNDER DIRECTIONS OF THE PARLOPHONE CO. LTD. “
All rights of the Manufactured and of the Owner of the recorded work reserved. Unauthorised public performance. broadcasting and copying of this record prohibited.

The earliest copies of "Please Please Me" have a visible pressing ring near the edge of the label and another near the spindle hole. On later copies, there is a single pressing ring.


The Beatles began to become popular in South Africa in Spring, 1963. Therefore, their albums in South Africa were released at approximately the same times as their releases in England.
South African mono LP has the black and silver Parlophone label (similar design to the UK gold Parlophone label) and front laminated flipback picture sleeve.
First pressings were released in mono only.

The first few albums were released on a black and silver old-style label, with a three-dimensional Parlophone logo at the top. The first line of the rim print at the bottom is "Pressed in S.A. under directions of the Parlophone Co. Ltd."
The earliest copies of Please Please Me have a visible pressing ring near the edge of the label and another near the spindle hole. On later copies, there is a single pressing ring about 1" in diameter.

The mistake in the first song's writer credits ... "McCartney-ennon" .... and both have a colon after the first two track numbers but a full stop after the rest of the numbers.

Later in 1965, Parlphone-SA switched to a label style resembling the one used in Scandinavia -- a black label with "PARLOPHONE" in silver. Naturally, the three-dimensional logo unique to South Africa was retained. This label was available in both mono and stereo, and the earlier LP's were reissued onto it. The bottom line of the rim print reads "Pressed for or by a registered user".

 later 'modern' parlophone label added. Don't know the date exactly but i think revolver was the first album to have the new design only so the newly added variant is Circa. 1966.

 Added sleeve, sadly its been mistreated and is in rather yellow condition (maybe that's why i managed to get it so cheap!!)
Hard to see under all the discolouration but the bottom right of the front cover say Photo:Angus McBean
