Issued in December 1982, The Beatles Sight & Sound packaged The Essential Beatles LP (now pressed with black Parlophone labels, although some early boxes included existing Apple-labelled stock) with Barry Miles' book The Beatles In Their Own Words (London: Omnibus Press, 1978) in a nice, cardboard flip-top box. With increased interest at the time in all things Beatles, this box was seen as a convenient way to move copies of both titles.
