LONG message not re-posted...!

Now, as I recall, the original post for this thread came from a chap who was 
collecting
(both in actuality and as digital images) information on all (?!) the 
Wisconsin-based
record labels of the "microgroove era"...?! That post made NO mention of 
78's
and/or their labels and sleeves (rather a shame given the abundant history 
involved
with 78's recorded/pressed for Paramount 192?-1932)...IIRC, the collector 
who
originated the thread was much more concerned with the rock bands and their
limited-quantity record issues...?!

There are good books (I own a couple) on the evolution of Victor and 
Columbia
78 labels (but admittedly not sleeves); I also did a detailed article on the 
evolution
of the various Grey-Gull-related makes and their labels, for the now-defunct 
New
Amberola Graphic (BTW...does anyone know to what extent NAG back issues
are available...and if yes, HOW does one acquire them?!) publication. Above
and beyond those, I wot not of other 78-label writings.

However, as I note above, the thread started out referring to microgroove
ephemera...and made NO mention of 78's...?!
