[78-L] RCA Victor reverse side "spider web" etching name?

[Dnjchi at aol.com]

I believe what was being said earlier was that, in the pressing process, it  
helped to have something on the flip side, so a silent groove or (better) a 
bas  relief design would help the flow of the shellac.  Or not.

The  millions of single-faced pressings which play fine would tend to counter
