Toralf Tollefsen - The Cuckoo Waltz (Gjøkvalsen) / Black Masks Waltz (Lørdagsvalsen)
It looks like Tollefson’s recording was made in London on 31 March 1947, and released that May in Norway with the Lørdagsvalsen title. Two years later, Columbia decided to release it in Britain and the United States as Black Masks. Perhaps with the delay, the Columbia people assumed Svarta Masken was an alternative title and used it instead. Makes sense, Black Masquerade Ball on Saturday? Novel name, increased sales?

Here's SMDB:

In Scotland, the tune Lørdagsvalsen is widely known as Black Mask Waltz. Was Tollefson’s recording wildly popular there, or did someone else have a successful local recording of the song?

Joe Patek Orchestra Of Shiner, Texas - Nas Maty / Andulka Verna
My copy of this record is mislabeled as Andulka Verna. Song is actually Orphan Waltz (Sirotek) and wax of ACA-1402 matches the song. Not sure if this carried over to Humming Bird 119.

Mosebuebe - Gletscherwasser (Glacierwater) / Bon Voyage
The Moser Brothers made some Moser Tone records in LA probably in the late 1930s, and then issued some 25th anniversary Moser Tones in 1945. All the issues I've found have different numbers on either side. The numbers on this record align with both the 1930s issues (RR 9614, 9615, 9616, 9618) AND the 1945 issues (RR 12227, 12290, 12367, 12371). So this is possibly a 1940s reissue of two of their 1930s sides. I have posted two of their Victor sides and did a bit of research which is written up on the posts:
