The tapes were issued in various styles of black and white cardboard container boxes, all bearing the stamp Capitol Records Of Canada. They feature the text «Capitol 8-Track Stereo» in large font.
Apple tapes such as Hey Jude (8XT 385) were housed in a black and white cardboard container box , bearing the stamp Capitol Records (Canada) Ltd.. They feature the text «Apple 8-Track Stereo» in large font. One variation of this box has an Apple logo (white outline on black) on the back.
