On 21th. May 1964, Swan released a single pairing "Sie Liebt Dich (She Loves You)" with the same master recording "I'll Get You" that served as the B side to "She Loves You". The record lists the group as "DIE BEATLES" on its A side label. All copies of the original single have white labels with "DON'T DROP OUT" and have "VIRTUE STUDIO" hand etched markings in their trail off areas. None have any production credits. Fakes don't have 'Virtue' etched.
Mallard Pressing has the German and English titles surrounded without the quotation marks with the song title in thin print in German over English.

As the two US 1963 Vee Jay single releases 'Please Please Me/Ask Me Why' (VJ 498) and 'From Me To You/Thank You Girl' (VJ 522) did not climb high on the charts, George Martin landed a contact with Philadelphia based Swan Records to release the newest Beatles single, 'She Loves You/I'll Get You'.
A clause in the contract stipulated that if Swan Records were able to sell 50,000 copies of this record, they would then have right of first refusal on upcoming Beatles recordings. Unfortunately for Swan, this was not to be.
The initial release of the very first issue was sporting orange printing on a glossy white background. The single never made it to the magic number that would have kept The Beatles recording for the Swan record label.
When Capitol picked up the Beatles option with their release 'I Want To Hold Your Hand/I Saw Her Standing There', and Beatlemania hit, in January 1964, Swan then re-released the single, only this time on a black label with silver print, which was their re-issue label colors. Another release (or re-release) is the blue print on a glossy white background, which was actually released in 1965, and never in tandem with the red on white label May 21, 1964.
