Get Back / Don't Let Me Down 2490 Mismatched Label

My copy of "Get Back" / "Don't Let Me Down" has what I suspect are mismatched labels.
Get Back shows the title to the upper left and Stereo to the upper right in dark print.
The reverse shows the title placed to the extreme left with the "D" in Don't just barely touching the sliced apple edge.
The right side shows the artists, (with Billy Preston), Maclen Music Inc., BMI,... then catalog (2490) and matrix number barely touching the very edge of the center hole.
The print on Side 2 is the amateurish type. The Capitol logo rim print is present at the bottom of the label. This is a Scranton issue.
Label error and/or mismatch?

The LA and Scranton plants made a bunch of temporary labels. Scranton's look absolutely hideous -- as though someone in high school made them. They continued to use up their labels until they were all gone. That's what you have ... a transitional copy (mismatch).
