Maud Powell - Thais		Perfect thanks!

I appreciate you taking the time to explain all of that.

Maud Powell - Thais		Aha! I think I might understand.

Do I have this right?

On the site, Date means Original Release date of the recording.
So for this record, the recording on it has an Original Release date of 1909.
So that's the Date to enter on the site.

Labels on the other hand, evolved over time, so one could say - This particular record was sold around 1914-1915. But that's not the Date we enter on the site.
Because that date is when the record was sold, not the date of the recording on that record.

Thanks,
Alan

Maud Powell - Thais		One more thing...Not sure if it makes deciding harder or easier...

When I checked my "Victor Red Seal Discography" book, there are two releases of 74135.

74135-1 - 19-may-1909 and shows "Falkenstein, George - Piano" - which is what's on my label.

74135-2 - 10-jul-1914 shows "Harp" instead - which is not on my label.

So there's that.

And I do really appreciate your help.
Although you guys are nice enough to figure out and date for me, I'm trying to learn to do that myself.

Thanks!
Alan

Maud Powell - Thais		Thanks Mike!

Maybe you can help me out with dating - I'm just going by what I've found on the web.

So says the internet...(ha)

From 1908-1913 was the "patents" label era, that had Victor-Record on the label instead of just Victor.

From 1914-1924(ish) was the Bat Wing label period, that had the bat wing and just Victor on the label. Many changes happened over time throughout that period.

Early on in that period, from 1914-1915, the word Victor was on the machine on the label, then in 1915(ish) and after, the word Victor on the machine dropped off of the label.

What I think is that since the "Victor" on the machine is said to exist on labels from 1914-1915, and there is a matrix number for that year, my record was released in 1914 or after, not in 1909 like I originally thought.

Because - if the record was released in 1909 - I would think it would have the "patents" label having Victor-Record on it.

Does that sound right?

Thanks,
Alan

Neapolitan Trio - O Sole Mio (My Sunshine) / Addio A Napoli (Farewell To Naples)		Hi Otto,

The A side has a 1 (one) and the B side has a 10 (ten) I couldn't find a way to attach images or would have done that. Is there a way to add additional images that I'm not finding?
