 Thanks for uploading this, I own P.R. 918 (carle hodsons my fate). I'm guessing that Victor Personal Recording was only a canadian thing.

 Ah, that timeframe could be it - makes sense then also for the Canadian RCA sleeve found in the same lot, it looked 1940s in styling - probably originally with this record.

Hm, also makes finding it in the North of The Netherlands perhaps a bit less strange. The North was liberated by Canadian forces in April/May '45.

Thank you for that pointer!

 The Montreal Masonic Choir under direction of Walter Clapperton is mentioned as performing Roberton's "The Old Woman" in The Gazette (Montreal, QC), Thursday, March 5, 1942, page 3.

 The record looks/feels late forties - fifties? But does still say VE, as if electric recording's still new. The number 757 suggests they made more of these private disks than I'd imagined - curious if it's datable. (I think lodge still extant, not sure about choir...)

Oddly, this record was found not in Canada, but picked up in a thrift-store in rural Friesland, Netherlands.
