There were three pressing plants in the US - Rockaway, Indiana and Hollywood.
the other two were 1S, 2S and they have a small H or I in the run out
Rockaway is the only one scratched the others are stamped.
A from the first father
3 third mother
N 14th stamper
They would fill up sleeves with records until one or the other ran out.
1 father
10 mothers
10 stampers from each mother
these are just averages and each stamper averages 1000 -1500 albums.
Sometimes they might fault at 700 or 2000.
Why the matrices are different on each side
Midway through the first pressing, the ran out of the original stickers for the shrink wrap and started using a different sticker.
The early part of this first pressing has a clear sticker on the shrink wrap.
The later part of the first pressing has a mottled brown sticker on the shrink wrap.
