[78-L] Collecting hobbies and their prices...

[Malcolm Rockwell]

What?
No, RR was published every two months, from the beginning.
Never mind.
To expand, I just dug out my issues and found a number of interesting 
things.
The "Record Research" lettering & logo that Lenny used until he ceased 
publication didn't begin until Volume 2, Number 5, Issue 11 - prior to 
that there were four different mastheads. Volume 1, Numbers 1, 3, 4 & 5 
used a hand drawn logo with "the magazine of record statistics and 
information" just below - the words over a lily-horned gramophone - that 
didn't reproduce well; Volume 1, Number 2 was hand drawn caps with "the 
magazine of record statistics and information" just below; Volume 1, 
Number 6 (Dec. 1955) was typeset caps, with the same description below, 
as was Volume 2, Numbers 2, 3 & 4; Volume 2, Number 1 was the same as 
the other Volume 2 issues except it used a different typestyle for the name.
My copy of Volume 1, Number 1 has "Complimentary Copy" in caps over the 
logo. Is there an issue that did not have this?
