[78-L] Early Columbia Labels & Sizes

[Sam Hopper]

Mike,

 My complete Columbia Masterworks discography (for M,X,OP,S,J and D series) lists the Confederacy as following.
 Hope this helps.

 BTW, my discography now covers over 780 pages...

So I assume there also was an issue of The Union. But this must have been expensive for Columbia to produce with a fancy 10-inch album for potentially very few sales. It would have made more sense to do it as 12-inchers. I've never even seen hints that this exists.
