... which indicates it was laid down over the disc in some fashion, not dipped, otherwise the centers (label area) would not display edges of any kind....

I have definitely seen acetates whose lacquer was laid down in multiple 
layers.  When the label falls or peels off  it sometimes reveasl an area 
of irregular coverage with plainly visible layers.

I used to think so, but I’ve seen a few that had a straight edge along the outer rim that indicated to me that maybe a ribbon of lacquer was aid on the discs.  And, I suppose, it may have varied from Presto to Wilcox etc.  I’m sure somebody (paging Dr Biel) out there knows.  It may even have been discussed/answered here before, but not under a meaningful subject title that could be searched, of course.
