The original issue was on potato head labels, and I see no indication of 
it being in a set.  My copy is on Royal Blue pressings with little 
stickers changing the catalog numbers.  When I got it there was a 
trashed blue album with the remnants of a silver spine sticker.  I 
suppose it came in one of those stickered tombstone albums.  It was then 
set M-280.and probably was given a generic cover in the CBS days.  It 
disappeared in the U.S. between 1942 an 1944 when the Levant version was 
issued on MM 512 which had a Steinweiss cover.  I'm surprised to see 
that the Whiteman was still in the Canadian catalog in 49-50.
