NOTE: This week Cash Box changed the banner over this chart from “The 10 Top Country Best Sellers (plus the next five)” to simply “Country Best Sellers.” At this point the chart still listed artist and label info for the Top 10 records, along with titles only for positions 11 through 15. Artists/labels listed above in those positions are based on a record’s previous or subsequent appearance in the Top 10 or its appearance on the concurrent Billboard Country charts.
