[78-L] Universal Studios 78s

[David Weiner]

Hey,

I just put these up! I assume they were made for promotional purposes,
going to radio stations and also to theaters that were playing the films.
Some have spoken introductions announcing the film and stars. I've seen
both Universal label designs used indiscriminately for the records in
1941-42.  Several I just put up have early titles for films that were
later changed - OH, CHARLIE for HOLD THAT GHOST and 50,000,000 NICK	ELS
for JUKE BOX JENNY.
