Speaking of Pearl (and that Gielgud Hamlet, which was done from my copy), are 
any of those titles still being sold at full price anywhere? The label has been 
inactive for years (and I'd like to reuse my masters).

Hopefully those pressings were done long after the "bronzing" issues were cleared up. And now I'll turn my attention to Gielgud's 1948 BBC "Hamlet", Naxos NA341712, which arrived in the mail yesterday. I'll compare this production to Gielgud's 1952 NBC "Hamlet" which I received about a week ago. It is on a Pearl CD set.....
