Chis Mac 12th Feb 2017		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - The 1951 Super Rhythm-Style Series, No. 29 & 30 (1951)	Andrew Ludwig's image on the B side attributes this to Lyttleton, whereas my copy (see alternate image), cites this as "Trad., arr. Lyttleton". Presumably mine is a later, corrected issue.

Chis Mac 2nd Feb 2017		78 RPM Louis Armstrong And His Hot Seven - Jazz Classics Series, No. 7 & 8 (1941)	My copy has a DT tax code, with a P underneath, and slightly to the left of the T. That dates it to 1942. [That means your copy has a DTP tax code = 30 Dec. 1950 - 15 Apr. 1953. Mod.]

Chis Mac 29th Jan 2017		78 RPM Louis Armstrong - New Rhythm Style Series No.11 & 12 (1930)	A previous owner has stuck a small type-written sticker on the A side of my copy of this record with the following: Combination as in "AIN'T MISBEHAVIN'"
Chis Mac 28th Jan 2017		78 RPM Jimmy Dorsey - New Rhythm Style Series, No. 3 & 4 (1929)	Interestingly, my copy of this record clearly shows a period in the Catalogue Number between the R & 449.
Chis Mac 20th Jan 2017		78 RPM Artie Shaw - Swing Music 1944 Series-No. 567 & 568 (1944)	Is there a typo in the title - it definitely has 1944 ... but B.9352 is 1943, and if they started a new series, wouldn't the numbers have reset (i.e. Swing Music 1944 Series-No 001 & 002 etc)? There again, B.9359 is Swing Music 1944 Series No 555/556. Hmmm
Chis Mac 28th Dec 2016		78 RPM Artie Shaw - Swing Music 1939 Series, No. 297/298 (1939)	A side From the Film "The Firefly" B side From the Film "Flying down to Rio"

Chis Mac 8th Dec 2016		78 RPM Ambrose - Indian Summer / My Capri Serenade (1940)	B Side composer is as shown - hyphenated (a double-barelled surname as we Brits say). He was actually born Harry Parr Davies.
Chis Mac 5th Dec 2016		78 RPM Lew Stone - Marilou / The Music Goes 'Round And Around (1935)	Interestingly, The Music Goes 'Round And Around is a track on Rex 8692, which is Jay Wilber's rendition, and they accredit it to Hodgson, Farley, Riley (which is the correct spelling of Mike Riley's surname.
