To Sir...with differences

This might be a challenge for Lawrence. I have two copies of the Aussie To Sir With Love but with differences in the ratings and printer credit. Any idea about them?

    My findings are that the blue Royelltone Prints Pty Ltd one sheet is from the original 1968 first Australian release. Royelletone only printed daybill and one sheet  posters, mainly for 20th Century Fox starting in the  mid 1960s to 1969. The second blue one sheet would be a second printing by an unknown printer using the original design, but changing  the circle  censorship rating presentation to the  the new Not Suitable For Children one line wording style that commenced being used in circa 1970.

    Due to the huge success of To Sir, With Love at the Australian box office, the uncredited one sheet version would appear to have been printed in either 1970 or 1971, prior to the rating changes in November 1971.This information is an updated version of information I included in the forum thread titled To Sir, Wth Love that I posted in  Februaty 2016. If anyone is interested you can check out the thread as it discussed the Australian one sheet, along with the daybill version as well,
