The first pressing (this) of this title contained a gatefold sleeve that resembled a mini version of the White Album. It had an individual serial number on the front cover, printed labels on the two white vinyl 45's, and a 13" x 8" two-sided poster that was folded and put into the package. Also, the cover's spine reads: The Beatles Apple EP-1.In addition to the matrix number, the inner groove area also features a message.
The second pressing included a simplified sleeve, with the bottom folded up inside to hold the records in place. The track info & pictures were moved to the back cover. There is no serial number, no writing on the spine, and the inside is blank. The labels are also blank... The records should still be *white*.
The poster may or may not be included on a second pressing.
