U.k. Sue Label Design - How Odd Is This?

[Mace]

Can anyone throw any light on the origin of this 45 ?

Presume it's an import by large centre hole, but whilst design is same as U.K. Sue label, colours are blue & white, not red and yellow?

It came from Canada, so I first presumed it was Canadian, even though the Canadian Sue is usually a plain orange design.

Print is somewhat blurry, but label looks to be genuine, and vinyl has a stamped WI number...label number is same as U.K. release.

Any ideas folks?

Methinks it may be Jamaican? Got that look about it.

Or, perhaps, printed in England to be exported to Jamaica?

Thanks guys.....nowt printed on it to indicate anything but U.K. but Jamaican makes sense.

Never seen this design before...is it common?
