Hello,

Contempo was at first distributed by Decca and the push-out centres were typical of most singles pressed at the time at Decca's pressing plant in New Malden, Surrey.

Contempo then switched to Pye and eventually to WEA before they folded. Some of the Pye pressings had push-out centres and others didn't. This just depended on which press they used, it doesn't mean they were manufactured at different times.
