I've recently discovered that Columbia formed a partnership with Rust Craft (the Hallmark of its day), to produce a series of records on a label they called "Mother Goose Records." The records are the same size as Little Wonders, and have a black paper label. The original Little Wonder matrix numbers were used, and I know about two of them -- 464-B is Little Wonder #943 and 464-C is Little Wonder #814. I'm assuming that there is a 464-A but don't know what it is, and there might be a 464-D (and E, etc.) or some other number than 464. These records were originally sold in a box, which you can see on the left-hand side of this page, about three-quarters of the way down (along with a photo of the record itself). If anyone has any additional information about these, I'd be much obliged -- and if you have any you'd be willing to part with, so much the better. Thanks!
