[78-L] Were classical 78 rpm sets made into the early 50's?

[Matthew Duncan]

I have a document somewhere (probably in storage) that lists 78s still available on Columbia in 1961 for order.  This is in Britain and there were some sets on the list with quite late DX prefixes on the catalogue numbers, so would imagine some of those would be mid 50s sets - others would be older ones that were simply still available to buy.

Some Mario Lanza albums were on 78 very late. The Columbia set "The Union" was 
on 78s, as was the Kismet cast album.

Reason I'm asking is a have 2 45 rpm classical sets from RCA&  1 Capital 45 rpm set with all 3 made in the early 50's which is why I'm asking the question about whether they may have been 78 rpm albums issued too of these or of other 45 rpm albums released in the early 50's. Anybody know?
