ps - 52009 may also be a Hill & Dale recording.  I haven't ever played it, nor have 
I seen it for a while, so cannot verify.  All I have is the listing in our home 
database.    Which brings up a question:   Did A/V dub their vertical records to 
lateral, when they switched methods?  Or did they make entirely new recordings ?
