Nellie Melba - Aubade (1906)
Ah - very interesting indeed.

So, allowing for inflation from the 1910's, compared to Caruso, the cost of a Melba was a mere bagatelle. (About £ 80 to £ 100 in today's money apparently ?).

Thanks very much scrough.

Nellie Melba - Aubade (1906)
21 Shillings (One Guinea) seems a lot to pay for a record in 1906.

Perhaps it was sold at one of her concerts ?

Mimosa Military Band - Territorial March / The Toy Drum Major
With reference to the following website:

http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/Records/LabelPages/Mimosa.htm

The Label I have up-loaded is a 'Type 2, Early P Series, 5 and a half inch' record.

The Label previously up-loaded is a later 'Type 3 Series' which I assume is also 5 and a half inches.

Interesting that two different labels were used for this record.

London Fire Brigade Band - Morning, Noon And Night (Part II) / Picardy (1926)
I would say '88' as the 'A' Side here is 'Part 2' and the 'Part 1' appeared on record number '87' according to this website:

http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/Records/LabelPages/Mimosa.htm

unless part 2 was released before part one which I think is unlikely.

Oooooooooh ! It DOES seem to say '86' ! I will upload a close up photo. How odd ?

[no artist listed] - Patsy's Hilarity / The Old Top Hat That Father Wore
According to this website 'Type 2' Labels (Early 'P' Series) were double sided 5 and a half inch - like this one and many others I have.

Could this size be added I wonder ?

[no artist listed] - Patsy's Hilarity / The Old Top Hat That Father Wore
This record is actually 5 and a half inches wide.

This does not seem to be available as a choice when up-loading / adding a new 78, so could this size be added please ?

Layton And Johnstone - Just Another Love Affair / The Clouds Will Soon Roll By (1931)

For example: 'A' and 'B' side differ with the wording below 'Columbia'.

'B' Side Label has different sequence with the three printed 'stamps' near the bottom.

Bessie Jones - In Lavender Time / Molly Kennedy (1923)
Interestingly, although this record was made in England, it seems to have 'made its way' to France (and back) - as it has some sort of French stamp attached to the 'A' side label.

Quelle surprise !

The Very Rev. H. R. L. Sheppard - Let Me Enjoy This 'Ere War In Peace / The Relevance Of Christianity (1930)
Hand written record sleeve notes added.

Interestingly, these notes (may) seem to date the record release as the 31st March 1930. If so, then this contradicts the dating software, which states release during April 1930.

Also, I wonder why the notes seem to read '... warm in peace' instead of '... war in peace' for the 'A' side ?

I also wonder why the notes don't refer to 'the artist' as a 'Very Reverend' - only as 'Reverend'.

H.M. Coldstream Guards - Bugle Calls Of The British Army. No. Ill / Bugle Calls Of The Bristish Army. No. IV (1916)
I find it interesting that HMV record B 593 states that J. Mackenzie-Rogan is a Lieutenant Colonel (Presumably recently promoted) whereas this record states he is a Major.

Both records were issued in the same month and year and yet B 593 is at least technically an earlier release number to this one.
