There has been a 78label e-mail list at least twice! One was a YahooGroups
list...its image archive was unexpectedly and unceremoniously deleted by
Yahoo on the grounds it took up too much space! A bit later, Ron F
"rescued" the list and it used to be (but no longer seems to be) image-
archived at 78online.com. This was also the site facility which offered
the complete "Abrams Files" for download!

What has to be decided is this: WHAT exactly is to be considered to
be a "variant" of a label? Different colours (if so...HOW different?)...
different fonts for credits...different wording for Manufacturer data
and/or patent listings...and/or so forth?!

Comment ca va?!
