[78-L] Your Mother's Son-In-Law - BG and Billie Holiday on Columbia Blue Shellac

[David Lennick]

Iffen you got a blue shellac copy, you got an original. This wasn't in print in 
1939 and would have had one of the later label styles if it were a reissue. 
YMSIL wasn't re-pressed till the late 40s, on Special Editions SE 5009.
