The "# S" codes also occur on adjacent issues, which are, AFAIK, normal Vic pressings.
20-2480 is Gillespie, Oopapada (D.Gillespie-Babs Brown), with "2 S".
I see now that 2 versions of the Gillespie exist: also one titled Oop-pop-a-da (Babs Brown).
Apparently Gillespie had to be added (and he is on the available Canadian label) or to be omitted.
In the wax is also something like "IV".

>>> And it says in the land: 2482 A 14 S and 2482 B 16 S, the "S" in each case
being slightly above the line. No idea if the S indicates Sonora or something
else. I held onto this disc today..I was going to put it in a batch of
Christmas records on the CAPS auction table. I have another copy but it's in
the storage unit so I don't know if it's a real Victor pressing.
