[78-L] Smaller Leeds label

In the same little lot where I got the  Larry Wagner record on  the "A-440" 
label,  I also got a nice copy of the Stan Hasselgard Capitol of Who Sleeps, 
a fave,  and a few old-timers as well,  including the following:

Leeds Records No. 4096.  "Side By Side." By Favor. The Talk-O-Phone Co.


I have several of these Leeds records all ca. 1908-11 if I recall,  and I 
like them because of the fancy gold foil labels which look like they should 
be on a candy box or school diploma.

But this label,  unlike any of the several dozen other Leeds I've seen,  is 
a smaller size,  and measures only 2.75"  in diameter.

Has anyone else seen one of the smaller Leeds labels or are they not scarce 
and somehow I've just missed them before?
