It sounds like a home-made copy of the original tape

with some singles included to fill up the time on the tape.

That was quick!
I'm sticking with my original view. The plastic reel looks like a generic one (which would have been provided with a blank tape); a proper Beatles recording should have 'EMI' on the reel. The coloured leaders are also consistent with home-taping. (Commercial tapes usually had white, printed leaders). The type-written insert looks like it was done on a good-quality portable machine (or on an office typewriter).

Your second picture wasn't there when I posted above.
Take a look at the picture to see whether it's printed directly onto the box or stuck onto it. If it's actually printed you might have discovered an extremely rare tape (although I'd still have my doubts!). If it's stuck on then it's almost certainly homemade.
Actually, on looking again, I see that there's a crease mark across the picture at the bottom right. Since it's not there at the bottom-left, I'm guessing that 4 separate photos (probably cut from one of the magazines which you could buy from cinemas at that time) have been stuck onto the box.
