[Phono-L] Edison Diamond Disc record oddity

Hi all,

I found a rather common Diamond Disc record this weekend but I bought it thinking it might be special or at least odd in some way. The record has a red stamp applied by hand accross both sides of the label that says NOT TO BE SOLD and then below that the number 9132. It's the same stamp on both sides. I talked with a couple of Oregon collectors I saw over the weekend and we speculated it might be a store sample, a returned record and I even thought perhaps it was a mis-labled record. I played it and it is the correct songs on both sides.

Has anyone seen this before? Any idea what is is?

Thanks

Dan Melvin
