HMV decal with red background

Post by chunnybh »

I thought I'd try some Rexine work, so bought a really cheap HMV 97d which has seen better days. I noticed the decal has an unusual red background instead of the common green. Is this a fake decal or is there another explanation?

Below the picture I think it reads "The Gramophone Company Ltd, Sydney, NSW." Perhaps that explains the difference.
