Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos 28th Jun 2023		The duplicate entry simply needed to be merged with this one here. We enter the catalog number exactly the way it appears on the release.
han enderman 28th Jun 2023		His Master's Voice JF 7 - Something goes wrong here in the database. This record, here as J.F.7, also has an entry as JF-7. I assume this error occurs more often and can be traced by putting the cat.nrs in alphabetical order. Maybe the best way is to use no dots (as in discographies), since many UK releases have dots added on later pressings (as in the Parlophone R-series). But it is more practical to retain the most common version here. Not clear if it presents problems with searching. - Note that the JF-7 entry has images with an UK shop sticker and invisible JF nrs (export only !).
xiphophilos 28th Jun 2023		Interestingly, all these J.F. prefix (export to Netherlands) releases have tax stamps, so are from 1940 or later. Yet the first two variants (TT and ST tax stamps) still use pre-war polychrome Nipper labels. Only the 1950-1953 DTP repress features the monochrome Nipper. On Russian export releases (E.K. prefix), HMV also used the polychrome Nipper far longer than I would have expected, up into ca. 1951 (DTP tax stamp). An example is here. The J.F. series can't have been exported to the Netherlands before the country's liberation from the Nazis on May 5, 1945. The Russian- and Baltic language releases with the E.K. prefixes were likely not sent to Russia and the Baltic either, but sold to Russian and Baltic emigres in the UK and elsewhere (Canada, U.S., Australia) after the war. Note: 3317938 and 3317939 _both_ show TT stamped into the center pressing ring, so they are not from the same copy. The tax stamp usually appears only on one side, often the B side.
han enderman 28th Jun 2023		HMV JF-7 - The images present are different variants of the color Nipper, coupled on a single copy. B-side has the later variant (with "nor sold" at 1 o'clock). Added are the reverse labels of each variant, plus a much later variant.
