Capitol Red and Orange
Target Label type-1 (with Dome Capitol logo) Wide font version (L.A. press) In April, 1969, Capitol switched to a red and orange target label with the Capitol dome logo overprinted in black at nine o'clock. This new look label was quickly revised in July, 1969, with the Capitol dome logo being replaced by Capitol's new circle logo. Unfortunately, the black circle logo did not always print well, often causing the image to appear as a muddy-looking black circle with a red dot in the center. This problem was corrected in early 1971, when the logo was given a white background and printed as part of the label backdrop. This gave the logo needed definition. During the time singles were pressed with target labels, Capitol was pressing the bulk of its singles at its Scranton and Los Angeles factories. Limited runs of a few titles were also pressed by its Jacksonville plant. There are four confirmed variations of the target dome logo singles:
The Scranton pressings with Keystone labels have the AlM
logo stamped in their trail off areas. The typesetting is
the same as that found on the original East Coast issues.
