 I believe that all UK issues of Victor material had the matrix preceded by A, the Victor by B. I seem to remember that one of the later double sided UK issues of Caruso stuff on site - possibly this track - showed the same A/B matrix differences. Technology was advanced enough by this date to press many daughter masters from a single master.

 Was wondering; when making a recording at Camden, would there always be a master made for the UK Gramophone Company and one for the US Victor company?

The Victor ledger states this is matrix number B8346, yet on this runout it states A8346. All the rest matches exactly. Have been seeing this same A/B on more records from that early era.

Would routinely an A and a B matrix be simultaneously made during the session, the A being shipped off and the B entered into the Victor books? (Seems a challenge, without electrical amplification?)
