  Even if the film is from an era in the later 20s where the label
format changed, this one is what 99 and 44/100 % of the copies would
look like, and would be more familiar to those who would look carefully
enough at it.  I think that there would be neysayers if you use any of
the later versions.  And why don't they just get a copy of the
RECORD??????  It is EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!  Same with Gallagher and Shean. 
These are not rare records.  Surely they can spare five or ten bucks at
the most.  It will cost more to make phony copies.

 Well - I sent him the black label version.  Already had it scanned as
it's on my site.  So that one's taken care of.

 Possible..I have a late 20s OKeh black label pressing. But the one that
would 
 be found in 99% of American homes that bought the disc (okay, maybe not
99% 
 since the thing stayed in print on blue Vocalion and was reissued in
the 50s) 
 would be red label, gold print.
