Although the label on the left is the older
label, only one side of this record is pre-
RIAA. The matrix number font and Take
Number was the give away. With US
Decca, one can expect pre-RIAA only up
to and including T3.
Below are two common Columbia LP
labels. Both of these labels have
appeared on records that were either “LP
curve” or RIAA. The blue label was almost
exclusively used during the pre-RIAA era.
The “6-Eyes” label appeared as Columbia
switched to RIAA. Almost all are RIAA.
You will sometimes find records with LP
EQ on one side and RIAA on the other.
You must check the
matrix number for
absolute certainty.
During the Columbia
transition to RIAA, they
reissued records with a
“HIFI Plus” sticker
to indicate an RIAA release. The labels
were often the old blue at the left.
Lastly, are a pre-RIAA RCA label on the left
and an RIAA label on the right. However,
you must check matrix numbers. The
remaining records in this Beethoven set
were all RIAA. This set was issued during
RCA’s transition to RIAA. Try to find
preponderance of EQ indicators.
