[no artist listed] - [no title listed] / [no title listed]
I guess it might be something like this?

PS. Before None's discography grows much bigger, may I suggest they be classified as [no artist listed] ?

Eduard Mörike - Die Moldau (Part III) / Die Moldau (Part IV) (1928)
This would appear to be record 2 of a 2 record set. I do not have record 1.

Stan Kenton - Peg O' My Heart / Intermission Riff (1949)
The label I've added is for a later (R/T) pressing, issued in a special sleeve, a Souvenir of the Visit of Stan Kenton to Great Britain, March-April 1956.

Various Artists - Melody Of Love / Make Yourself Comfortable (1955)
Added 1955 as year, as that's the year most of the original versions were released.
Record seems to be made of 'styrene.
These were budget records sold in Woolworth stores. An imprint of Waldorf Music Hall Records.

[no artist listed] - (Tigers) / (Leopards)
Lovely labels, but tricky to enter details, as no titles printed. .
Features a woman's voice describing various big cats - lions, panthers and jaguars also mentioned.
I think this must once have been part of an album set.

Note the Free of Purchase Tax sticker on the B side.
It means that this was in the shops prior to 21 October 1940.
A side recorded 6 Oct 1939, B side recorded 13 May 1940.

Victor Military Band - La Golondrina (The Swallow) / Perjura Danza (Fickle Maiden) (1914)
Thanks. I should really have been able to find that date myself.
I've checked the EDVR many times before, but when I add my very first Victor record, I forget!!

Guy Lombardo And His Royal Canadians - When Day Is Done / Smoke Gets In Your Eyes (1945)
Thanks.
I suppose it wouldn't really matter, once the records had left the country, if they had extra markings!

Guy Lombardo And His Royal Canadians - A Fine Romance / The Way You Look Tonight (1936)
I'm guessing this is an Export issue, but I see there is now a German HMV label listed. Maybe this belongs there?
This looks more (and less!) German than the one record currently listed on that label E.G.2537

Guy Lombardo And His Royal Canadians - When Day Is Done / Smoke Gets In Your Eyes (1945)
If this is an Export issue, may I ask why it would have a TT (Triple Tax) marking in the runout? I thought exports were exempt from tax.
Now that I've had a browse, I see lots of the Decca Export Issues seem to have tax codes.

Walt Disney's Pinocchio - Turn On The Old Music Box; When You Wish Upon A Star / Little Wooden Head (1940)
I followed the example of the Snow White records B.D.514/515/516 in adding this.
Maybe it should be credited to the characters instead? - I just added them to the notes.

Peter Dawson - The Floral Dance / The Lute Player (1927)
I've just added a 45, dating from 1961. It is a newer recording, with Orchestra, rather than just piano, from December 1934 (so presumably, a 78 exists).
