How About This — 10th Avenue Prestige?
Aug 12, 2010 78-RPM Records, Prestige
Here’s an interesting question from on of our readers, based on the accompanying pictures. We all know about the addresses on the Prestige LPs: West 50th Street in New York for the 10-inch LPs and 12-inch LPS up to around 7141, then Bergenfield, N.J. But that about this address, 754 10th Avenue, as seen below? Anyone know how many Prestige 78s were put out with this address on the label, or anything else about it.

10 Ave was used on the 700s, 800s and up to at least 951, after which the 50th St. addy was used. Some of the 700 and 800 (not certain about the 900 series) were reissued with the 50th St. labels. I have no idea about the 300 series. Did they come before or after the 7-8-900 series?
