Some scrawled right over someones face!! I thought to myself "what an idiot". My Dad noticed a bunch of these as well and was downright disgusted that anyone would do this. Later, I found out that Ira Cook was a big DJ in LA back in the 60's and 70's and even wrote liner notes for LP's as well. Maybe this was his way of keeping his personal collection away from the radio station copies, I don't know. Either way it's a senseless act of vinyl vandalism!!! My 2 cents, carry on........... Cheers and Mahalo, Jeff
