The album title appears as “Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band” on cover front & spine, but as “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” on labels.
A2 appears as “A Little Help From My Friends” on cover, but as “With A Little Help From My Friends” on label.
Side B runout contains an unintelligible vocal recording loop at the very end.

Runouts are stamped. (Variant 3, side B runout figures at 9 o’clock are very difficult to identify, having been stamped then overstamped.)

Durations were found and entered by timing every track of a copy of this exact release by stopwatch.

1st June 1967 as date of release of this album is stated on the official Beatles website (thebeatles.com).
