Upsetter FC 6th May 2023		As noted on the Folkways Wikipedia page, Moses Asch planned to keep all the Folkways releases in print. So as they sold down, new runs were created. Which means different dates, addresses and covers. Had enough fun sorting this out for the few Folkways LPs I listed here.



Fokeman 6th May 2023		The last label which is a variant which adds USA to the end of the address, has the same font size as the B side label, which has a different font size from its companion label from the other side. Also, only the B side actually shows the address of the label at the time.



Upsetter FC 6th May 2023		The disc is missing an address. It was issued originally issued in 1954. The sleeves and booklets changed when different batches were produced. A scan of a 1960s copy of the booklet is on the Folkways website. If you want to see the changes as they progressed, check the discogs listings. Unfortunately, the discogs listings are not accurate on dating. A West 46th St. address is the earliest listing. A move to West 47th St. followed. Later address will be on West 61st St. and 7th Ave. The later both have 5 digit zip codes.



Fokeman 6th May 2023		The dates are 1954 and then a reissue in 1962. I have a booklet for each disc with the two different dates showing, one on each booklet. To cap that, the rear of sleeve date is 1956, which only serves to further complicate the matter.
