[78-L] Reused numbers?

[David Lennick]

Thanks Han..that was indeed my question, whether Columbia reused the 68000-D 
series. Other companies did this as well, but usually left a longer period of 
separation. Victor had 18000s on black label acoustical and 18000s on Red Seal, 
but there was about a 15 year difference. (Decca, on the other hand, killed the 
12" Red Label 25000 series in 1943 and reused the numbers about 3 years later 
as 10-inch Personality.)
