Collection 3243
Wishlist (Private)

Discovered Jazz and Swing in middle school and have been a fan ever since. Collecting 78s, which I started about 35 years ago, has helped me expand my musical horizon. One of my areas of interest is now also the "ethnic" or foreign-language music on shellac that Columbia, Victor, and many other labels produced for immigrants to the United States between the 1910s and 1950s.

McKinney's Cotton Pickers - Will You, Won't You, Be My Babe? / Rocky Road
Exactly, the British The Gramophone Co. (label "His Master's Voice") held the British rights on the Nipper trademark.

[no artist listed] - Shores Of Minnetonka / The Old Rustic Bridge
When the composer is unknown or not listed on the label, by the way, you should simply leave the composer field blank. If you can figure out the writers' names by Googling them, you can always add them to the Notes, as I have now done, or in a comment.

I found the A side vocalist identified on M. G. Thomas' site: http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/Records/LabelPages/Little_Marvel.htm

The label profile on Discogs says (basically agreeing with our label bio here):
Discs were initially 5½" in size but later increased to 6".

Billy Scott-Coomber - Many Happy Returns Of The Day / Just A Song Called “Home Sweet Home"
Or is it Reggies? Probably the name of a previous owner. An artist wouldn't sign it twice on the same label and strike out the initial letter on the B side.

The Page Cavanaugh Trio - Ok'l Baby Dok'l / (I Would Do) Anything For You
I'm sure a US version exists, but no one has yet entered it into this database.
