HMV B-8496 - Discogs shows a copy that couples #3A-4B, each with a single copyright logo of Francis Day. Such couplings of different label types usually indicate that these types were chronologically consecutive. Types #1-3 have a single publ. logo, but the type #4B I added earlier (#4bB) has 2 copt-logos and thus is later than the copy at discogs (that we can call #4aB).
Another (very bad) copy at discogs is type #5a. It has 2 copt-logos on B (as before on #4b), but still a single Francis Day logo on A. This indicates that #4A does not exist with 2 logos.
Another characteristic of #5aB is the size of the Chappell logo, smaller than the Francis Day logo (just as on #4bB).
HMV B-8496 - added images of the first two label types (#1 & 2), with coloured nipper (#2A lacking). Both types are uncommon and not in discogs. Type #3 is already present, and exists with ST tax code. Type #4 has Made in England right of hole, but is known in 2 versions (with different publ. logos on the B-side). Main type #5, with MADE IN ENGLAND, exists in several variants.
