Reused labelling

[303Gunner]

This packaging label is printed for 32 Cartridges of .303 Tracer, but has been overstamped in violet ink "Mk7".

Package and cartridges is of 1945 Radway Green Mk7 Ball. Seemed they must have had extensive stock of rolls of gummed H.3284 Tracer labels, and needed H.3282 Mk7 Ball labels?

Label

Nice label. One does not often come across altered labels in British service.

Here's another example. This time the contents have remained the same, but the manufacturing factory has been altered from MQ (Munitions Factory No 5, Rocklea, Queensland, Australia) to MG (Munitions Factory No 2, Footscray, Victoria, Australia)
