[78-L] a "Two-Faced" record!

[marimbamoods at comcast.net]

i have a similar Olympic / Symphony disc, with two acoustically recorded sides. the Olympic label is red, with a light green Symphony Concert Record label pasted over the red Olympic label. the green Symphony labels are torn so that i am able to read some of the label info on the underlying Olympic labels. 

both Olympic and Symphony labels list the correct musical content, though on at least one side the green paste-over Symphony label uses a pseudonym for the performer while the performer's real name shows on the Olympic label underneath. 

i have no idea what this arrangement is about, but it is rather curious. other examples of paste-over labels exist as well, such as Manhattan labels pasted over early single-sided Columbias.
