 From what I've gauged, the "anvil" existed from the time the Scranton Record Co. came into existence (superseding Scranton Button Co.). Unless my mind's playing tricks on me somehow (a rarity, given my usual eye and ear for detail).

Whichever way you slice it, however, {Images #1243006 & 1243007} is definitely a circa 1945-46 pressing. (The "Reg. U.S. Pat. Off." from what I gathered, first showed up around 1947.)

 Ok, my friend... So, the original pressing should have the "42" style label. I have that Capitol labels.pdf downloaded on my phone.. it is an excellent reference source! However.. since this pairing was released in September of '44, it seems to be, at least to me, that the "42" label would have been relatively shortlived.. depending on when the "45" label replaced the "42"....

 This label is definitely a repress. Capitol labels between 1942 and 1944 have the Capitol dome logo reach below the word Capitol. This label style, where the dome is cut off above the word Capitol, was used between 1945 and 1949. It's the Label 45 at https://www.friktech.com/btls/capitol/capitollabels.pdf

 Question, W.B.lbl... if the Scranton Record Co. pressed Capitol releases going back to the beginning in 1942, were they using the anvil mark on the deadwax since the beginning? Or was this something added after the sale to Capitol? There seems to be some confusion whether this pairing is a repress or not...

 Capitol's ties to Scranton dated back to the earliest days of the label itself, 1942, when that plant was known as the independent Scranton Record Co. Capitol first put an option to buy the plant (and affiliated Scranton Distributing Co.) in 1944, and finally exercised it in 1946.

When Capitol was started up, Scranton Record Co. was one of three plants that pressed for them at the outset. The others were Clark Phonograph Co. of Newark, NJ (which apparently was no longer pressing for them by this point) and Allied Record Manufacturing Co. of Los Angeles (prior to what was to be an affiliated West Coast outpost of Scranton Record being built, before it became Capitol Los Angeles upon completion).

 Capitol acquired the Scranton plant in March 1946 (Billboard, April 6, 1946). I am not sure when it was up and running for business but that would still mean that your copy with the Scranton anvil is a repress.

 My copy of this record has the Scranton "anvil"... So it must be a reissue? Capitol opened the Scranton pressing plant in 1947....
