I wonder what the tax code on your blue & white label repress is, rockin-geoff.

Par(Sz) PZ-11015 - The UK Parlophone issue of this record (which is linked) was released in Oct 1944. Thus date 1941 is a misreading of 1944 in the upper image (and should be corrected). Considering war conditions, this Swiss copy was released probably in 1945, though the series may have been started in 1939/40 and late 1944 remains a possibility.

Voc 5186 (1939) - A-side image added (should be moved up). - On the Parlophone reissue, the sides are in reversed order (The 1944 Super Rhythm Style Series, No. 43 & 44).

OK 5186 - label images added: both sides of the first edition and bad A-side of 2nd edition (without "Registered" line).

Par(Sz) PZ-11015 - The Swiss Parlophone PZ-11000 series contains many records taken from the UK Parlophone R-series, and the labels mention the original series details (like name, year & nrs). Thus the series date on the label is not always the Swiss release date. PZ-11002 has the other titles from the great Pete Johnson session, released in 1939 on R-2717. PZ-11011 & 11018 (Ellington) are from the 1944 & 1943 Series; 11023 (Ida Cox) is 1945 Series No.27/28, 11024 (Ida Cox) 1944 Series No.45/46; 11063 (Billy Banks) 1943 Series No.119/120.
PZ-11089 (Woody Herman) is 1946 Series No.3/4; 11100 (Basie) is also 1946 Series. PZ-11113 (Armstrong) has 2 titles from the New Rhythm Style Series, but not the original Parlophone coupling. "P.Z. 11002" (with aberrant font and prefix) may even have been published in 1939/40. But PZ-11023-ca.11080 were presumably released in 1945.
