I'm not sure of the deadwax info present on this particular release. The closest Victor Miller recording (with the same ring design except it is missing the 1637544 patent number displaying a blank space in its stead within the rim text) to this which I have is 27879 "Sweet Eloise"/"Sleep Song".(recorded 4/2/42).

I should also point out that I've randomly picked out three other Victor issues
displaying the same ring design. None of these four provide consistent information throughout within the deadwax

A Side:

6 o'clock position: (position at which information is located when label is horizontal)


27879 1A1F (NOTE: the catalog number is preceeded by a device that looks like an incomplete trapezoid, i.e. a foreward slash and backward slash joined at the top by a straight line with no joining line at the bottom. It is very squat in appearance.)

9 c'clock position:

1

12 o'clock position:

backward 2

3 o'clock position:

4


Side B:

4 o'clock position:

27879 1A4A

7 o'clock position:

1 over C

 The date listed above is the recording date, not the release date (which should be entered).

Listed as a double-sided hit in Whitburn's Pop Memories 1890-1954, the release debuted on the charts on October 12, 1940. Depending upon its initial review within the trades, the release date could either be July, August or September, 1940.

 I wonder if {Images #671749 & 671750} would have been an early pressing from the Indianapolis, IN plant which first opened for business in August 1939. The break in concentric circles as next to each end of the "RCA Manufacturing Co., Inc. ..." rim print differs from (what appears to be) Camden pressings. Other than the matrix numbers, what other hints would there have been in the deadwax?
