[78-L] Fake Columbia matrix numbers

[David Lennick]

I've seen this happen a number of times with RCA and Columbia and sometimes 
other plants being involved, but in this case the matrix numbers are 
consecutive with the 1951-52 album. And the actual numbers in the dead wax are 
"Part 1" and "Part 2".
