Great leads from Mike and Ray..thanks! This tells me where to look (among a 
stash of British 78s, among other places). I wonder if anything's on that 
Colpix LP of movie themes? Post 1960 issue but the same material had appeared 
on other labels first.

Odd that there wasn't a soundtrack album at the time, since these were becoming 
popular and that one was an Oscar winner.
