carryonsidney 23rd Jan 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumJohnny Ace - A Memorial To Johnny Ace | Record probably issued in 1961.
Vogue images added, RC guide seems to put the Vocalion issue first but personally I think Vogue labels are first (1950s design) followed later 1960s label designs for Vocalion? Anyway sleeve on my copy is laminated front and back, shame it is pretty beaten up.
