Notes

The release date has been estimated from 1) the fact that the record is not in the 1930 HMV catalogue (which runs up to March 1930) but is in the 1932 catalogue, 2) the fact that Evans died in April 1931 and 3) the catalogue sequence number (although I know this is not always a reliable predictor).

Evans had released this sketch at least twice before. First on Zonophone 859 in 1912 and then on HMV B 1578 in 1923. This version sounds electrically recorded so I'm assuming is not a re-release of the 1923 recording.

On the 1912 and 1923 release "Arthurs" has co-credit as writer.
