[78-L] Philadelphia 1917 and the Liberty Bell

[Sam Brylawski]

Encyclopedic Discography of Victor Recordings resources show that
Victor recorded the Liberty Bell acoustically twice, on Feb. 11, 1915,
(B-15701; three takes); and June 14, 1917, (B-20039; one take). All
four takes are marked in ledgers as "destroy."
