Allied, which took over Columbia's "west coast" pressing facility after
Columbia went broke (and was acquired for about $70,000 by ARC!)
seems to have been left with a bunch of "Royal Blue" blanks, so that
(various initials) MacGregor pressed many sort-of-blue 10" 78
issues!

I have NO idea how/why Allied 10" pressings were bluISH, as opposed
to Columbia's "Royal Blue"...?!

Comment ca va?!
