Is this a master pressing (11/12-inch) or a standard ten-inch disc?

Thank you for your answer. This is lacquer to pressed disc.

In 1949, Columbia was still mastering on lacquer discs. Is what you have a test pressing or a lacquer reference? The latter could be turned around easily from Thursday to Tuesday, whereas the time frame you give for the former seems brief, although arrangements for extraordinary circumstances could have made it possible.
