Yellow Okeh, is it a real one?

There are legit yellow Okeh labels, there were used around 1960-2 and this record fits into that time frame I think. If it's a stamped styrene press, than it's probably real. I have Billy Lamont "Country Boy" and a few other R&B records on yellow.

As promised,

Deadwax stamped ZSP55360 - 1D, about 3mm before the Z there is another stamp that looks very much like a J,

was thinking, could yellow okeh be Canadian ?

Thanks for that Tony,

I can't see a "J" but there's what looks like a very feint T1 opposite to the stamp.

It says made in USA on the label, just looks a bit strange Okeh being on a yellow label.

Like George said there are legit yellow Okeh labels, used around 1960 - 62 and this release was 1961
