Following on from the pair of different sized Wee Murray labels, an online conversation with interested collectors has tempted me to post this pair of Pale Ale labels. I believe these are fairly early examples, before WW2, but the question they raise is: are these different labels, or is there just a bit more ink used on one of them? Not revealing which one though. Sadly comments are still invisible on the website, but I can still read them and I would like to know your thoughts.

I can see one definite difference between them: the shape of the letters in the word “trade”. As there is a later rectangular label which incorporates the right-hand label, I assume that the left-hand label is the earlier one.
