Dating Ilford Multigrade RC cooltone box sticker

Does anyone know when Ilford changed the box sticker design on Multigrade RC Cooltone paper? I’m posting two photos showing the different versions. Thanks!

those are really tiny images on my screen!
I would ask Harman on the Contact form on their site.
IIRC, the paler version was actually the same both before and after the receivership, so I would check the very bottom of the sticker to make sure it says Harman and not Ilford Imaging.

Hi Matt, I just took these from the web. The change happened either around 2014 or 2020. I thought someone here would know before I bother Harman.

One is RC, while the other is FB. I believe the two different products and their associated labelling were on very different timelines.

I'm sorry, my mistake:

I believe pictures should be labeled the other way around - that with two stripes on either side of blue field is new one. This type of labeling started when Ilford introduced MG RC Deluxe, I think.

Interesting an possibly correct, however it would mean that Harman is displaying old labeling on their web page: https://www.ilfordphoto.com/multigrade-rc-cooltone-glossy

they similarly show older package label on the MGFB and MGWT pages
