The main differences are in the sleeve layouts, which are often markedly different to their UK counterparts. All the sleeves are matte - no laminates at all.
Every sleeve is a unique variant but some sleeves are very different.
A few of the notable differences :
PLEASE PLEASE ME
White 'bar' at the top of the front of the sleeve with EMI & Parlophone logos in the top right.
A HARD DAYS NIGHT
Front of the sleeve is PURPLE, not blue.
SGT PEPPER
Non gatefold & a weird combination of what appears to be the US style front with the UK style back. No insert.
THE BEATLES
Parlophone label. Non embossed, non printed front of sleeve - It is plain white. The only markings on the outer of the gatefold are 'STEREO' printed in the back top right & 'THE BEATLES PCSJ(S)7067/8' down the spine in gold lettering. No Inserts.
YELLOW SUBMARINE
Parlophone label.
ABBEY ROAD
Parlophone label. Logos on front of sleeve with catalogue number & 'STEREO' at the top of the front in white. White 'bars' top & bottom of the rear of the sleeve.
