Mercury 20000 Series B (60900-60999)
This series was just preceded by 20000 Series A. The time was around 1960.
At that time, Stereo records were getting popular slowly, so the numbering scheme had been changed. Monaural records were sequentially numbered from MG-20600, while Stereo records' numbers were from SR-60600 in line. This scheme was used when the Monaural issues were faded out in the late 1960's.
