Tom Fine:
I don't have any factual reporting to back this up,
but the process I would think occured was that
Decca pressed the records and put them in the
patented lined inner sleeves in England and these
were batch-shipped to places around the world where
they were sleeved and shrink-wrapped and re-boxed for
distribution to the retail channels.
This is exactly what I was told by DECCA recording engineer John Dunkerley and other DECCA employees.
