Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos 2nd May 2024		Switched image order. The original release had the A-prefix, which was used until September 1947. Represses without the A prefix, but still with the series name "Americana" are from between October 1947 to April 1948. After that, the "Americana" logo was dropped.
