*10 inch 78 rpm* Since this ain't no museum, my aim is not to depict actually existing specimen of 78 rpm records, but to show the labels as pristine as workmanlike possible even if this - in some cases - takes a whole lot of my time to photoshop process the initial data

Spottswood Flyright 101 "presented by Robin L. Gosden, Simon A. Napier and Bruce Bastin" In case anybody wonders why the 1978 edition of the Flyright LP has "℗ 1973" on its labels: The "need for putting '℗ 1973' on the label comes about because of the passage of the amending 1978 US copyright act" (Bob Eagle): § 303. Duration of copyright: Works created but not published or copyrighted before January 1, 1978 (a) Copyright in a work created before January 1, 1978, but not theretofore in the public domain or copyrighted, subsists from January 1, 1978, and endures for the term provided by section 302. In no case, however, shall the term of copyright in such a work expire before December 31, 2002; and, if the work is published on or before December 31, 2002, the term of copyright shall not expire before December 31, 2047. 12 page booklet Piedmont PLP 13159 (US 1963) 12 page booklet = Gryphon GLP 13159 (on cover), Chesapeake CLP 13159 (on label), Richland (on notes) (US 1964) [Dick Spottswood labels founded soon after he "left" Piedmont Records] = Flyright LP 101 (UK 1973) = Flyright LP 101 (UK 1978) Piedmont Records discography Flyright Records discography
