Lables look like the real deal, definitely.

Really exciting to see what still turns up after decades of collecting this label.

Comment by jll_259:

Looks like the two known copies are exactly the same label wise. If you compare the Wouldn´t You Know labels they have the same markings and shadows around the spindle hole, the same dots/ink spots in the same places and so on. I guess it´s the same record being pictured with other photographing skills.

Mack Stevens commented on this: "only know of one or two copies. Jimmy told me he had a boxful, he tacked them up around the bandstand of his nightclub in 1956. Left them there when it closed."

Here's one confirmed copy

@Hanco Bol That´s definitely a gem you´re having!

As far as I know SUN pressed in runs/batches of 300 records for 45 rpm singles before the mother stampers were worn out. Not sure how many you could go for with 78 rpm.

It would make no sense to press only one single 78, in my eyes. I cannot imagine Sam Phillips did that because it is not economically. Sam was all about making money back then. If there is one there must be more...but that´s just my guess.

2 of the most beautiful songs ever recorded at 706 Union.
I am more than happy that I was able to buy another copy some weeks ago!

@jll_259 I posted #289 in the Facebook group at that time and purchased the record later that year. It is most likely the only one known on 78.

Comment by L_clocks'n'music:

My copy of this record has a weird defect: For the first 30 seconds the pitch sounds completely normal, but then it suddenly jumps higher in pitch and stays that way until the end of the song. When compared to any online recording of the song it appears to be higher pitched than those first 30 seconds even in the beginning. Perhaps when cutting the master Sam might've corrected the speed during the cutting process after noticing the pitch difference
