Looking at Discogs, some 1969 US 45s have a catalog and label matrix number starting with "PBS" and some "PB." I'm presuming that the "S" in PBS is indicating "stereo," while the copies that only have PB are mono. At the very least, the label matrix number of the reprint (the one that is mono) only starts with "PB."

It would certainly make sense that a song by a then-unknown group on a smaller independent label in 1969, which was early in the stereos-on-45 era, would have been available as a mono 45. I'm actually kinda surprised that any commercial 45 copies of "Oh Happy Day" were issued in stereo. That said, if anyone can confirm having an actual mono 45 copy, I'll make sure to update the List of mono and Stereo 45s - 1969 thread accordingly.
