I was very surprised to see a Reprise 78 by Sinatra of "Granada" on eBaying
awhile back - think it was from South Africa.  Must be from 1962!

And this is the first time I have ever seen proof that Warner Brothers DID 
issue 78s in Canada. As I've mentioned, a monthly supplement from late 1958 
produced by Sniderman's (Sam The Record Man) indicated that all the new WB 
titles were available on 78, but I didn't see them at the time and have
never 
turned one up in close to 50 years of collecting, junking, clearing out
radio 
station libraries et cetera.

Aside from the "Summer of '42" Theme, of course, and that was also Canadian
only.
