Bruno Walter + Philharmonia Symphony Orchestra NY, Beethoven 8th Symphony. Tombstone Paper Cover.
I've read that Columbia issued 200LPs at the launch, 50 Classical 12", 50 Classical 10" 50 "Pop" 12" and 50 "Pop" 10".
I think all were dubbings from 12" acetates recorded at 33rpm but only in 78rpm durations. None were direct cut or from tapes.
I may be wrong and welcome any corrections.
Happy Birthday LP
