liskeard78s 24th Jan 2025 | | 78 RPMDwight Fiske - Clarissa The Flea / Ida, The Wayward Sturgeon | I have 12" Gala 108 by Dwight Fiske :
Wing-Toy And Ky-Fy
c/w.
Tilly The Pure White Leghorn.
Label design like the one above with GALA in capitals.
Sorry I can't provide label scans as the disc is cracked from edge to label and my scanner requires a 12" disc to be pressed down to the glass, which could break it completely in half.

liskeard78s 21st Dec 2024 | | 78 RPMStanley Holloway - Gunner Joe / Runcorn Ferry | The sound quality in the available (tape recorder) video is poor. Heavily compressed. But there are some good (remastered) recordings available on YouTube. For example :

That other old story (in similar vein, haggling for a bargain) "Three Ha'pence A Foot", 1932, can be found on YouTube direct from 78 r.p.m.

liskeard78s 12th Dec 2024 | | 78 RPMStuart Ross And Joe Sargent - Never Swat A Fly / Go Home And Tell Your Mother | 1930 ! Not 1931 ! Please correct the date.
According to the late Eddie Shaw's D.A.T.E.S. numbers up to R.874 were issued in 1930. As you may discover, both sides must have been recorded in 1930 (which is possibly the more relevant).

As you can see already stated, both sides recorded in 1930 (which is possibly the more relevant).
