Tax Codes (parsed)
21 Oct. 1940 = T
Purchase Tax introduced 33.3% (stamps with "No Tax" applied to stock already purchased.)
1 Jan. 1942 = price increase
15 Apr. 1942 = DT
Purchase Tax increase 66.6% (on E.M.I. records, the D is above the T) (Double Tax?)
13 Apr. 1943 = TT
Purchase Tax increase 100% (This dramatic increase would have resulted in fewer purchases)
(Triple Tax)
30 Dec. 1950 = DTP (CT+IP on Decca) (also AT stamps)
price increase (so rate was back to DT but the resale price went up)
so the images need shifting , with the AT one with the . in the cat one being a later pressing.
Added variant labels, the A side of which bears a TT sticker, which would represent Triple Tax, as applied in the mid 1940s. However, I'm not sure it is a genuine purchase tax stamp, and may just be a stamp with TT on!
