I am more cynical, I suspect that the centre was dinked and somebody has replaced/repaired using a pre-SIUK centre....

That would be very hard to do, AND to get the left bottom point of "45" in the right place on both sides....... But you could be right. If not, it's definitely a rarity, I would say....

Notice the rim text. It has "Parlophone..." in Title Case instead of in UPPER CASE.

"Northern Songs Ltd" is also in the kind of font that was used in 1963.

Finally, the catalog number is wrong.

What clearly happened is this:
someone took a scan of "From Me to You" and replaced the titles with "Can't Buy Me Love" using Photoshop (or similar software).

Ah, indeed!
Well spotted, Frank!
Still, makes me wonder who would go to such lengths to fool someone...only to have the buyer give him a Negative......
:wacko:

The things i'm learning on this Forum. Noticed a CBML on e-bay, that looked slightly diff around the label...but was advartised as a normal pressing. Took a chance...(in supposed ex condition)..and parted with a fiver. Checked the above info/photos etc...and seems i've just got myself an oriole contract press with aligned publishing credits. just hoping the sellers ex is my ex.
