Statler Brothers - The Statler Brothers' Greatest Hits
Would appear "Flowers On The Wall" was a re-recording, as otherwise this would have been a 2-record set with RCA Custom pressing one record and CBS Special Products pressing the other.

Various Artists - The Blues Project
Always thought the album title to be ironic - given that Danny Kalb would later wind up in another Blues Project whose members included Al Kooper and Steve Katz.

Bobby Darin - If I Were A Carpenter
{Images #979851 & 979852} was an RCA Record Club pressing using Atco's stereo color scheme.

Oscar Brown, Jr. - Tells It Like It Is!
This was the first LP (both this and the mono version) I'd submitted after Vinyl Album World was commenced, in light of my 12th anniversary with 45cat; here's a particular favorite of mine from this, his last for Columbia:

Oscar Brown, Jr. - Tells It Like It Is!
In honor of my 12th anniversary of joining 45cat, here's to this, the first LP (this and the stereo version), with pertinent images for the cover and label, that I'd submitted to Vinyl Album World.

Nat "King" Cole - Non Dimenticar (Don't Forget) / Bend A Little My Way
I'd joined the original 45cat 12 years ago today, but this is the first 78: a) that I entered, and b) is represented visually by {Images #410494 & 410495}.

Sterling Trio - Tenting Tonight
Wondering about the label size, must be very, very small.

Various Artists - The Great Big Band Vocalists
This would have originally been 1971. In 1974 CSP was already in the middle of their P 1#### series. Here is how the labels would've originally looked.

Jim Reeves - Missing You
Had Reeves lived past 1964, would he have had a bit longer hair and pronounced sideburns whilst making that pose?

The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
And with all due respect to 'baldybeano' and 'Jace59', have added easier to read variant labels from Scranton with A2 shown as "A Little Help From My Friends."

The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Added original 1967 front and back cover from before Maclen Music, Inc. was referenced at bottom right.

Lucy And Carly Simon - The Simon Sisters Sing For Children
And no doubt a cash-in as the result of Carly's fame at that point.

One of the last in Columbia's children's line before it was spun off into the independent Children's Records Of America.

The Ramsey Lewis Trio - Choice!: The Best Of The Ramsey Lewis Trio
The cover {Images #3483284 & 3483285} and labels {Images #3483286 & 3483287} are: a) stereo, and b) ish'd on original label Argo, thus a new entry for the Argo [Chicago] stereo release of this should be created.

Oh, it'd be Bridgeport all right . . .

Billy Murray And Walter Scanlan - That's My Idea Of Heaven / She's A New Kind Of Old-Fashioned Girl
I'm curious as to what the label diameter from end to end of the paper would be for these 'Needle type' discs. I measured anywhere from 3" to 3.1875". What would this be?

And with Columbia Pitman label type too. Very nice.

Patsy Montana - The Waltz Of The Hills / Rodeo Sweetheart
{Images #3481930 & 3481931} is a pressing by the then-ARC plant on Romaine Street in Hollywood. Have yet to see a Bridgeport.

Various Artists - P.D.Q. Bach: The Stoned Guest
RCoA copies such as {Images #3480823 & 3480824} were pressed by Presswell.

The Cotton Pickers - Rampart Street Blues / Kansas City Kitty
I take it Brunswick's 78 labels were 2.9375" or 3" by this point?

Wonder what the diameter of Regal's center labels from end to end were . . .

Various Artists - 50 Years Of Music America Loves Best
Any word as to the RCA Custom matrix numbers for each of the 14 sides?

*EDIT: Never mind, I see they're all laid out there.

Jan Peerce, Maria Stader, Otto Wiener - Beethoven: Christ On The Mount Of Olives
Although by the pressing, the front cover {Image #3474915} and labels {Images #3474917 & 3474918} would have been post-'69. First time I've seen this Westminster label variation (which was obviously copied and pasted from that of Dunhill, even down to the two rainbow boxes).

On another front, for some years as a youth I used to get this label confused with the (usually) R&B label Westbound.

Marmalade - Reflections Of My Life
If 'MR' is etched, it must've been pressed by Mercury Record Manufacturing Company on the eve of its ownership and name change to Philips Recording Company, Inc. Not seen hide or hair of a Monarch pressing of this LP. H.V. Waddell (W) and Audio Manufacturing Record Co. (AL) copies exist, don't think any pressings by Columbia (whether P or TH - forget SM).

Orson Bean - Orson Bean At The Hungry I
'Twas either in June or July of 1960 when this was released, based on the matrix number and what, on the Fantasy / Galaxy Masters list, came afterward.

That label looks to me like RCA Rockaway, no?

Had a Columbia House edition existed, it would have been SO 500383.

Victor Young - Decca Presents The Complete Musical Score Of "Gulliver's Travels"
Harry Stanton, referred to on the labels {Images #3469504 & 3469510}, is of no relation to Harry Dean Stanton. In fact, it was because of the former that the latter, early in his career, was mostly credited in films and on TV as Dean Stanton. Ironically, both actors appeared in an episode of "Petticoat Junction" in its final (1969-70) season - "Dean" as a member of a biker gang that stole chickens, Harry as a sheriff on their trail.

Todd Rundgren - Healing
Based on the 1" pressing ring, looks like {Images #1357285 & 1357286} was pressed by Allied with pressing dies from the old RCA Hollywood plant.
