Olga Orsella - Ave Maria / Und Ob Die Wolke Sie Verhülle
Side/matrix nrs are also in the run-out.

Could be linked to Dacapo? Side of matrix 8509 same recordings as Dacapo D-3300 of 1908 ?

Alb. De Booy - In Naam Van Oranje / O Schitt'rende Kleuren Van Ned. Vlag
Tiny record, just under 6".

Clearly Dutch songs (very patriotic) sung in Dutch with piano accompaniment. Sounds like an acoustic recording.
Is this label perhaps related to the tiny Colibri pocket gramophone? (Belgian?)
Trademark notice for the Colibri is however in German.

Montreal Masonic Choir - The Old Woman / Border Ballad
Ah, that timeframe could be it - makes sense then also for the Canadian RCA sleeve found in the same lot, it looked 1940s in styling - probably originally with this record.

Hm, also makes finding it in the North of The Netherlands perhaps a bit less strange. The North was liberated by Canadian forces in April/May '45.

Thank you for that pointer!

Montreal Masonic Choir - The Old Woman / Border Ballad
The record looks/feels late forties - fifties? But does still say VE, as if electric recording's still new. The number 757 suggests they made more of these private disks than I'd imagined - curious if it's datable. (I think lodge still extant, not sure about choir...)

Oddly, this record was found not in Canada, but picked up in a thrift-store in rural Friesland, Netherlands.

Beka Orkest - Till We Meet Again / Smiles
Oddly then, the label I think is in Dutch. Plus the record was found amongst a Dutch 'attic-lot'. Not sure how strict Beka kept to their block allocations?
(E.g. strykorkest (archaic spelling) is correct Dutch for string orchestra.)
