Allied Records Pressing Plant
Hollywood, CA

 
Type 1 Label on polystyrene

Due to the extremely high demand for the Monkees records
RCA subcontracted with Allied for additional pressings.
They used the same labels and metal stampers as the RCA Hollywood plant.

If you look closely you can see an"A" is lightly etched next to the "H".

Sealed in a Bag

Sutton Records was a budget record label and distributer.
Here they repackaged this hit single for resale in a non-traditional
outlet such as a gas station or supermarket.

 

Store Hanger

Sealed

Used on peg hooks for stores that lacked racks for display.
If you ever picked up a Colgems sleeve and wondered why
it had staple holes in it, this could be why.
