[78-L] Marconi Records with Sleeves

[Clifford Bolling]

The sleeves are blank on the reverse with no holes.  
Each sleeve has a small square of waxed paper glued to the inside covering the hole.
The first 2 of the waxed paper centers are intact, the other 2 have small tears in the middle. 
Also, the 4 little 'flourishes' are different on the first sleeve than the other three.
They are made from lightweight cardboard rather than paper.

WOW!!  Good find.  The sleeves are scarcer than the discs.  What is the
reverse of the sleeves?  Any printing?  From the picture it looks like
there is no hole on the reverse.  I have one of the two-sided Spanish
discs, and I wonder if there was a hole in the reverse of those sleeves,
and if they were in Spanish.
