[78-L] Layers of lacquer?

[Thatcher Graham]

Here's a good resolution scan of the exposed laquer layers under the 
label on two different acetates. One is a Pro-Disc the other is unknown. 
You can clearly see the layers, there's a vague roundness to it but less 
than I'd expect with a spray, spun or other mechanized process.
