Spottswood is on the ARSC-List and reads and replies regularly.  I am
surprised to see him report that there is no info in the RCA files about
this label.  I had thought there were Blue Release Cards for these like
there are for Crown.  It could be that if there are cards there is no
info of the source of the recordings.
