[78-L] Canadian 4 Star

[David Lennick]

Definitely a Compo label. The 4S prefix might have been necessary if the 
distributor (who may or not have been Compo) had other titles with similar 
catalog numbers.

The scan showed up as purple but I've seen other examples of dark blue Compo 
labels that came out as purple.
