This pressing was plated at [l=Allied Record Company], but pressed by [l=Specialty Records Corporation], as indicated by the Allied "ɑ" logo stamped and "AL-SP" etched in the runouts, and the "E A S T" embossed around the center hole (usually the "T" is the most visible, sometimes the only really visible letter). Remainder of runouts etched. [r=16115532] is a similar version that was pressed by Allied Record Company. That version does not have the AL-SP etching in the runouts, and will often have the letter "A" embossed in the center of the inner pressing ring on one or both sides.
