Look what I found!

No. I've noticed many different combinations of label and text colors for both mono and stereo 'normal' labels - but I don't know how to categorize them. The very dark blue (possibly black) with white text could be a re-issue label, the ones I have are thinner and sound worse. I don't have much time today but I'll try to dig out some info later.

I'll email you the Hifi Stereo /Minigroove pics tonight.

Cheers
Carl

Edit: This guy has a lot of label pics including some data - but seems no info on what the different 'Series' represent nor timing

Do you happen to know if there is any significance to the label colour of the later 'normal' ones, I've seen back, red, blue and I think tan? It doesn't seem to correspond to anything I can see, i.e. it's not box sets, dates or anything obvious like that.Tony.

Thanks Carl, that is an excellent site that I'd not found before - I may be attempting to reinvent the wheel here!

I won't mention how little I paid for these (about 350) LP's!
