MANY!!This, to me. represents the last major gap in 78-record discography! 
There were multi-
tune 78's which offered first two, then THREE tunes per 78 side. I have been 
trying to do the
discographic research, by aurally comparing songs bearing the same title...!

First conclusion...the songs themselves were recorded seperately! They were 
then combined
into "sets" and THESE were issued on the 78's...!

No further conclusions so far/yet...?!
