[78-L] Further questions on RCA/Bluebird 31-0000 series

[Han Enderman]

31-0010 is Johnny Bradford: Let's Take An Old Fashioned Walk / (Just One Way To Say) I Love You.
Both titles from musical production "Miss Liberty" (Berlin). (from labels)
Considering release in 2nd half of 1949, the series can possibly be traced in Billboard (advance lists or
reviews) by its release nrs or the musical titles.
So is this more from Miss Liberty or is david's numbering inaccurate (no album nr on labels of 31-0010) ?

>>> 31-0001/4 were Al Goodman doing a box set of SOUTH PACIFIC (using the 
understudies) and I think 31-0005/8 made up another box set of Irving Berlin's 
MISS LIBERTY. Vinyl pressings, nicely done, marketed to the great unwashed. 
Columbia also had a budget line, Harmony, which was distributed by Eli 
Oberstein's company and was doing too well..it had a couple of hits so they 
snagged it back and put the artists like Rosemary Clooney on the full price 
label. I'm not sure what Canada did with either of these series..certainly they 
didn't give Bluebird the deluxe treatment here.
