In fact I have that 78 with a promo label..I'm not sure if I've actually seen an issued copy. Entre wasn't long around as a singles label. On LP it was a budget classical label, a fact which may have caused dealers and customers to expect a lower priced 78 (or WAS it bargain priced? Unlikely in the early 50s but I could be wrong).
