Hey Jude/Revolution – If It’s Re-issued Should This Be The Look?

Loved this Tweet yesterday by Canadian Beatle aficionado and author, Piers Hemmingsen:

AUG 29 1968 - Following the launch of @AppleCorpsltd in Canada, all of the new HEY JUDE 45s are being shipped this week in WHITE paper sleeves with "The Beatles On Apple" printed on them. At the same time, the USA Apple sleeves were BLACK. Now, which sleeve do you like ? pic.twitter.com/aG0vhVH1j2

It made us think that if (and it seems to be very likely) there are plans to re-issue a physical ‘HeyJude’/’Revolution’ single as part of the forthcoming Beatles White Album 50th Anniversary, then it really should come in a white sleeve like the 1968 Canadian issue.

What do you think? Does this…..



….look better (and more appropriate) than this…..
