The style of record label on the clock is referred to as the ‘batwing’ label because of those two pendant-like devices at the 11 and 1 o’clock positions. Those were originally intended as spaces to write the album and page number.LShaped wrote:Jus seeing this...what is "batwing merchandise" ...sounds nifty!!
