Only 8,000 copies sold upon its original 1940 release

Reissued under the same catalog number in 1943 with A side credit changed to Featuring Frank Sinatra With Harry James And His Orchestra in reflection of the singer's initial "bobby soxer" popularity, and "Jazz Masterwork" designation eliminated from A side. After this billing change, the record sold a million copies.

A mx: CO 25288 (label & runout);
B mx: LA 2044 (label); LA-2044-A (runout of 1943 reissue).

A side (mx. CO 25288) recorded New York, NY, August 31, 1939.
B side (mx. LA 2044) recorded Los Angeles, CA, November 8, 1939.

 Our label scans here now illustrate an interesting teachrock.org lesson on "World War Two and the Shrinking of the Ensemble": http://teachrock.org/lesson/world-war-ii-and-the-shrinking-of-the-ensemble/.

The writers claim that the original version sold 16,000 copies, not just 8,000. Does anyone have access to evidence that would back up one number over the other?

BTW, I wish they'd have at least credited 45worlds for the images.

 Uploaded the 1943 "Frank Sinatra with Harry James" reissue labels. Note that side B is nearly identical.
