What catalog nrs / series are we talking about?han enderman===>>> They also issued the Rachmaninoff 2nd Concerto with Eugene List on that kind of 
plastic. Those are the only Canadian ones I've seen prior to the later 
Deccalites of around 1949 and on.

The label is like a typical 1940ish Canadian Decca label except above the word Decca it says "Plastic" and below Decca it says "Vinylac".  I've never seen another Decca record like this which surprises me since it must have been a series and these records are obviously "unbreakable under normal use" so there should be plenty of them around.
