This is the very rare 1963 early yellow & black label Parlophone UK pressing without the more common "Recording first published.." text on the labels (which came later) and with "The Parlophone Co.." label text around the label perimeter.
This one was issued in the 1st pressing 'Gold label' cover with the Angus McBean credit further to the right than in later pressings. Technically referred to as the 4th pressing in the 2016 UK Rare Record Price Guide and valued at £150.
