LPs 3000-3250/25000-25250

The first label on the 12 inch record series was the same as the label used on the 10 inch series, maroon with silver printing. "Dot" in silver script above the center hole, "LONG 33 1/3 PLAY" and "DOT RECORDS, INC. * GALLATIN, TENNESSEE" at the bottom of the label. After August 1956, the address was changed to "HOLLYWOOD 28, CALIF."

The original logo on the front of the albums was a circle with "Dot" in script and the record number both in the circle. This label and logo was used from 1955 to mid-1957, approximately DLP-3030. This changeover took place about the time that Randy Wood sold Dot to Paramount Pictures, in 1957.

In 1957, the label changed to the more familiar black label with silver print. A script "Dot" in yellow, red and blue is above the center hole. Around the bottom of the label is "DOT RECORDS, INC., HOLLYWOOD 28, CALIF. TRADEMARK REGISTERED IN U.S. PAT. OFF." This label was used unchanged from about 3031 in 1957 to at least DLP 25856 in 1968. Reissues of the early albums 3000- 3030 used the black label, also.

The stereo series used the same numbering sequence as the mono series, except the prefix was 25xxx instead of 3xxx. The first stereo albums were issued in 1958 at approximately 3123, although Dot subsequently reissued many earlier albums in rechanneled stereo, or re-recorded some for stereo in 1959.

LPs 3251-3500 (25251-25500)

By 1960, most of the album issues were done in both stereo and mono. The logo Dot used was usually the plain circle, but occasionally they used the more elaborate Dot/Paramount logo. There does not seem to be any consistency for this, as some albums have one logo on the front and the other on the back. All used the normal black Dot label, regardless of which logo was on the cover.

The labels used during 1963-1968 were the same as had been used since 1957. There is some notation in collectors' books that a transition label was used with only the information on the bottom of the label changed, to "A Division of Paramount Pictures" on the bottom, but we have not seen this label. Indeed, we have seen albums with the Paramount logo on the jacket and the old Dot label inside.
