I was able to make a fairly crude pressing from one of the stampers on a biscuit I found in the closet, which seems to be a live recording of a group calling themselves the New Hermaneutics, out of North Carolina. I'd date the whole pile at 1967-1969 or so. Anyone ever heard of the company? I looked in the Portsmouth phone book and saw nothing, and I asked a couple of friends at local studios and had no luck. In desperation, I post here. --scott
