The one I have on a photo in front of me looks black but might be very,
very, very, dark blue, but the edge leading to the spine looks a little
faded to dark green. It has silver engraved printing "In His
Incomparably Humorous MUSICAL IMPRESSIONS". Unfortunately the label pic
I took is out of focus -- we were being rushed out. What is interesting
is the snooty statement on the inside back that they won't sell
individual discs but will replace a broken one for a buck if you present
a shard with the label. On the other hand, Victor proclaimed in a
supplement that any disc from any of their sets could be bought
separately.

The reason I asked is because "printed label" could mean a paper label such as on the Columbia Royal Blue albums.
