From Discogs:

Vinyl, LP, Mono, Album, "Ad Back" Cover, ARP Pressing

Notes

Black rainbow label with oval logo, does have "Microgroove and Longplaying".

Incredibly rare 'ad back' cover; the LP has the first (withdrawn) track lineup of 'Introducing The Beatles', which included 'Love Me Do' and 'P.S I Love You'. The very first run of 6000 front cover slicks says 'Printed In U.S.A' on the lower left hand corner near the spine. The print quality of the covers is excellent, with sharp photo reproduction and a semi-gloss finish. The exact lineage of the three back covers that Vee Jay produced (ad back, title back, blank back) is not known, and the collecting world has been rife with speculation and theories for years. There are known counterfeits of the stereo 'ad back' cover.
