Does this book have the correct description / title? UK or Australian Version of Superman

Just got this book back form CGC and was surprised to see it listed as a UK version. I was under the impression it was an Australian version. 

If any one has experience or knowledge please help me out here. I was using this link to gather my thoughts on the topic. http://lewstringer.blogspot.com/2015/11/the-british-superman-from-australia.html

Even though KG Murray were an Australian publisher, they did have books printed for distribution in the UK, so CGC are right to call the book a UK (distributed) edition on this occasion.
