COMMENTS
Black Parlophone label with silver ink.
Without the push-out center (Solid center).
The three-dimensional Parlophone logo was printed at the top of the label.
"PRESSED FOR OR BY A RESISTERED USER" was printed at the perimeter.

The only markings at all in the dead wax are the original matrix numbers (7XPEA 198 / 1 & 7XPEA 199 B / NEW). And of course no mother or stamper number.
Which suggests (or does it?) that tapes were shipped out to EMI (South Africa) and they created their own stampers.

(*) EMI Brigadiers (legally "EMI-Brigadiers (Pty) Ltd.") was formed in early 1973 as a joint venture between EMI South Africa and local company Brigadiers.
