I have 2 label images:
170509 - Glenn Edmunds aHO (as yours)
170505 - Everett Hoagland's Troubadors - At The End Of The Lane.

The digits/letters in wax at 12h are the usual Columbia details:
The first digit is the take, and then follows stamper number.
Normally letter + digit (like A 1 = first stamper from mother A).
The small "c" indicates a West Coast Columbia mother, and apparently
there was no need to number it (most West Coast pressings are from
a single stamper, (A)G-1 or c-1).
Look at a Columbia -D record and you usually see the "East Coast" stampers.

Is there info in the new ADBD?
