i once owned a few of these.some i received from my uncle in winnipeg,manitoba,canada.some i purchased from an antique store here in brandon,mb.i listened to them all the time.the sound quality of them was amazing.better than the shellac.
If you have warped hit of the weeks, try this recipe: soak record in warm water for about 10 minutes or until soggy, towel dry and place between two single faced records, put a couple of inches of78's on top, let sit for a week. Records should stay flat for many many years. I did this with a bunch of H.O.W.s a good 45 years ago, and they are still flat. The ones I didn't do it to are still warped. G🐸D
I never knew "Hit of the Week" came with sleeves. Amazing.

My mom bought Hit of the Week when she attended Cal Berkeley.

Between two pieces of window glass might work better. Single-side records are not very common.
They seem to have been able to get almost 4 minutes music on a 9" side - quite remarkable.
