Re: [ARSCLIST] Victor Red Seal Sets
I wonder if that was a policy for 2 record sets only - in order to save
$ on producing a special album for only a pair of discs?

My understanding is that pairs of Victor discs were sold separately, as
if
they were singles, with whatever sleeves the dealer chose for selling
(or
whatever the customer chose to use, which could have included an
unnumbered
album). Only pairs which were numbered as sets came with albums and
notes;
there were a few special exceptions and a few pairs which began as
pairs
and later received set numbers and albums. For many years one could
buy, at
least by special order, just one disc from a set.
