Label Design = Other Release Dates

[Zanetti]

hi guys,

 

 

sometimes i´m wondering because of different designs of the labels concerning the typography.

 

Is the reason of other release dates or whats the background ?

 

Thx in Advance

TWO EXAMPLE

 

 

 

 

[Robbk]

They were pressed in different pressing plants in different parts of USA.  The J.J. Jackson on the left looks like an Eastern US pressing (RCA Pennsylvania?), on the right a styrene pressing from Monarch pressing plant in L.A.

 

The Cameo record seem to me one from The Midwest, and one from The East Coast.  They all look to be pressings that were out during the original run of the record, first or possibly 2nd pressings, but all during the time the records were charting.

Hi Robb,

 

Are Sure That One Can Differentiate Between The Cameo Pressings, That One Is First And One Second?

 

So, please Can You Tell Me Which Is First ?

 

Thanks

At least, I, myself, don't know enough about Cameo pressings to determine which was first and which was later.  It's possible that at the beginning of a national release, they had pressings made on The East Coast, in The Midwest and on The West Coast (and possibly, also in The South), all at the same time.  It is also possible, that one represents a later pressing (although, if so, likely in the same year, and all during the same sales run-NOT a re-issue), so why make a distinction between the two in terms of originality?

 

Still, it seems more likely to me that they were both made within a week or two of each other, but that the difference in label design represents the difference in the typesetters and paper used by different regional pressing plants.
