This came out of a batch of store stock I bought a few years ago. There's 
another copy in there..I'll have to see if it's also a Sonora. In addition to 
the pimply pressing, each side has a raised ring around the center hole.

Awful looking shellac, disc numbers in very tiny font in the land, and "Song Hits Magazine Record of the Month" on the label..could this mean a special press run?dl_______________________________________________78-L mailing list78-L at klickitat.78online.comhttp://klickitat.78online.com/mailman/listinfo/78-l
