This one's interesting. I have two copies of Standard Z-192, Jack Teagarden. 
The labels are visibly different in type face, the matrix numbers are 
different, and the timings are different (by a couple of seconds, and not 
always in the same direction). By different matrix numbers I don't mean take 
numbers or other clues to indicate that one is a dub..completely different 
numbers and series! YTH 1063/4 on one copy and SRR 2502/3 on the other. And the 
SRR issue (a lighter, more flexible and probably later pressing) sounds 
terrible, squeezed.

The "better" copy isn't always the better copy!
