    From information I have seen only the first mono pressing did include the red & white swirl inner sleeve.
    • analogwavelength's avatar
      I have this exact copy with "A Little Help From My Friends" on the label, and like the pictures...it appears it doesn't have the red/white inner sleeve even though it includes the cardboard insert. Does anyone have a copy of this that actually contains that inner sleeve? I'm wondering if the very first mono pressings didn't have the inner sleeve for whatever reason...
