 Neat find! This is a very late use of the Royal Blue shellac. Columbia's Bridgeport plant seems to have used blue shellac only till the end of 1935. The Los Angeles plant used it into 1936. So this is more likely a 1936 than a 1937 release. That fits the label design, a 1936-1937 Viva-tonal style label, COLUMBIA in all-caps, "Not licensed for Radio Broadcast" below the round Columbia logo; patent text at bottom "RE. 16588 AND 1702564" and "© C.P.CO.", cf. M. Sherman & K. Nauck, Note the Notes, page 33.
