I once liberated a scratchy lacquer disc which had a paste-on label, something
like "Lenny Bruce: Shoes Are Not Just for Keeping the Dog S**t Off Your Feet".
Needless to say it was nothing of the kind, and I'd forgotten about the
National Lampoon doing fake labels (as MAD did a decade earlier).

But the sum is beyond ridiculous, the disc is not in the best of shape, and it would be nice to know what the mx. is onthe unlabeled flip. Of course, if someone was really in the know, and conducting a scam, they could use a real Gennett test and pencil in these notations; the disc couldby anything.
