I'll have to see it with my own eyes before I'll believe that both Allan Sutton and Kurt Nauck are wrong when they say the existence of universal cut Crescents remains unconfirmed, while this gentleman claimed to have several. I've played mine both vertically and laterally. The volume and sound quality are very nearly the same. (Not very good) I don't know what else I can say. I can't examine it right now since I have it stored out in the back warehouse in one of the boxes. Whether it is or is not recorded at 45 degrees is not really an issue with me. I was just confirming, from my perspective and personal experience, a statement made in a previous post. By the way, the collector I referred to was the late Ajax Todd of Seattle who began collecting records way back in the teens along with his brother Vern Todd. Both of these gentlemen were very knowledgeable on a variety of records and they certainly remembered when these records were still new. Does anyone have any information on a "Jackson's Challenge" record made at 219 Bowery, New York from the very early days. I also have one of these early single-sided discs. Rick A.
