Yes, I have had several Lionel Hampton with Pick The Winner on the reverse, although it is a scarce title... There is also a Pick The Winner on a Victor record that has The Punter's Lament on the reverse... both hard to find, as are all puzzle records. I always wondered if the Lionel Hampton record might have been used for gambling in Harlem clubs or other speakeasys, as it looks unsuspecting when placed on a phonograph... then flipped for gambling.
