Notes

First pressing, 1st label UK issue with M K T embossed on push-out centre and without NCB credit.

I Want To Hold Your Hand is very similar but has the N.C.B. rights society credit and embossed KT Tax code.
The Beatles - I Want To Hold Your Hand is very similar but has the embossed KT Tax code.

UK Purchase tax codes are only useful in dating UK releases. MT tax codes were used after Jan 1st 1963 and KT after July 1st 1963. It is thought that EMI used MKT (a non-existent tax code) slugs on some discs pressed in late May & June 1963 when they were unsure if the actual release date would be before, or after, the 1st of July.
The only other UK Beatles singles which were issued with an MKT 'tax-code' slug was a red label The Beatles - Love Me Do and 2nd Press type-2 examples of R 5015 'From Me To You' (unless you know different). See-
