JLC135 20th Dec 2019 | | 78 RPMBilly Russell - On Behalf Of The Working Classes (1938) | I tried getting the date amended through the Make Corrections page months ago...! (Sure, I only had the label design to go off, but my suggestion of 1939, at the most, was a lot more accurate than 1950.)

JLC135 28th Oct 2019 | | 78 RPMLeslie Douglas - Don't Dilly Dally On The Way (My Old Man Said Follow The Van) / Honeysuckle And The Bee (1947) | The Cat# should be: MR 3797. [mod - changed]
|
JLC135 14th Oct 2019 | | 78 RPMLeslie Douglas - Don't Dilly Dally On The Way (My Old Man Said Follow The Van) / Honeysuckle And The Bee (1947) | Australia didn't use the MR prefix.

|
JLC135 13th Sep 2019 | | 78 RPMFred Gibson - The Hippopotamus / Buying A Stamp (1928) | Redpunk: That URL doesn't work anymore. Use this one for the reference.
|
JLC135 11th Sep 2019 | | 78 RPMGracie Fields - Walter, Walter / The Trek Song (1939) | Any chance you could add the B side, too? It's the original label design for this record.
|

|
JLC135 19th Aug 2019 | | 78 RPMBlue Hungarian Band - Strauss Waltz Medley (1939) | xiphophilos - Anything with a Cat# pre G21600 was definitely released on Regal. I'm not sure how high the numbering went before the labels merged, but I doubt it went higher than G21650.
|

|

|
JLC135 27th Jul 2019 | | 78 RPMAl Jolson - Rock-A-Bye Your Baby With A Dixie Melody / Ma Blushin' Rosie (Ma Posie Sweet) (1947) | My copy has a Capitol label (B side of CP-306) pasted-over the A side label. The number in the run-out, WL4140T4A, matches the Decca side, though. The Decca labels are also from the original release, so I really don't know what to make of it.
|
JLC135 25th Jul 2019 | | 78 RPMHenry Halstead - Varsity Drag / Good News | Interesting note on the B side label: "Congress Orchestra" is listed two lines above "Henry Halstead And His".
|
