Thank you, Han, for looking that up. I was not aware of these Odeon export series. They were then probably marketed all over continental Europe. In any case, I've added Export above.

Od A-221110 - Lange, Deutsche 78er Discography, 2e Auflage p.33, lists the A.221000 Serie as German export 1927-35, and lists this Odeon under its Venuti title, but not under Dorsey. Text is normally in English. Some are Made in England (by Parlophone). - French Odeons say Made in France or something like that at 6. Lange also lists the A-189000 Serie as German export, and says that several foreign A-series were pressed in Berlin, like the French A-160000 series between 1926-30.
I think that the French royalty stamp on A-189267 indicates it was imported from Germany. Earlier printings in this A-189000 series have the Lindström "L" in a square on the labels.
Lotz (Bilderlexikon) says that the export series have an A-prefix with 6-digit Cat.nrs.

Are you sure this is not French? Usually, French Odeon releases have an A prefix and 6 digits, and it's also typical for French records that they use a period to separate the thousands: A221.110.
I haven't seen a German release with more than 5 digits.

On Discogs there's another Odeon release that I suspect is French, submitted by "Monsieur_77" and with what I assume is a French royalty stamp saying "Publications Francis-Day": Odeon A 189267.

Od A-221110 - This is the German release of Parlophone R-280, which also has this Eddie Lang credit. Orig. issue of B is OK 41133, as by Joe Venuti And His New Yorkers. Rust wrongly lists the reverse of 41133 (Doin' Things) for A-221110 and omits this Odeon under Dixie Dawn (Dorsey Bros 22 May 1928, OK 41050).
