Re: [ARSCLIST] Determining the A-side of a Brunswick 78

didn't come up with any obvious answers. I am inventorying a collection of
78s and on occasion I come across a label that distinguishes between A/B by
underlining the catalog number below the artist and above a small upper-case
"N" - in this case, Brunswick #6289 has the numbers underlined on one label
but not the other. Does anybody know how to determine which is which? Thanks
in advance ---

The "N" indicates the side was cut in New York...I believe other
letters were used for other studio locations. And, IIRC, the
underline side is the "A" side...in fact, I think Brunswick
underlined the catalog number before the location letter was used...
