Was it ever used on a 78? Nearest I can tell, it was only used in their 41000 series on 45's.

Probably not because I don't know which label style you mean. Can you provide a link to an image?

Apparently not! There's no link function here for that! Here's the number of the link over at 45cat.

I've seen Canadian 78's with a red version of that label, but never a yellow.

I tried, but failed to find the record with that "link number". Why don't you simply copy and paste the url? You could even link this url straight to the record with the ∞ button when you reply to this.

Fortunately, you at least mentioned that you are talking about the 41000 catalog number series. Here's the first one with the cat. nr. 4-41000, which came out on September 9, 1957.

And no, I've never seen that label style on a Columbia 78rpm even though they released the occasional 78rpm disc until December 1957. The last one seems to have been Tony Bennett, "Love Song from Beauty and the Beast", b/w "Weary Blues from Waitin'" on Columbia 41086, released December 16, 1957.

Update:
Actually, there is an even later one, Doris Day on Columbia 41195 from July 1958, still on the old red label: https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/record/41195. And even that is said to be only the second-to-last commercially issued 78rpm on U.S. Columbia.

These are all yellow labels, Keith, but none have catalog numbers in the 41000 series.

The children's record (MJV-56) with the yellow Unbreakable label is, of course, a 78, and those are common. Children's records were issued a bit longer on 78rpm because parents gave their old 78 players to their kids as they themselves upgraded to newer machines.

I think it was more that some kind of 78 mechanism was used in some far east sourced toy record players - they worked clockwork ? but not very well ! sold in the toy departments of local department stores in the uK

Yes, that 41000 you've got here is the label type I'm talking about.
I've never seen a 78 with that label, only the red version used in Canada..
