Arto manufactured the first Globe label (not the Grey Gull label) in 1921-1923.
At first Globe used a K-prefix (K-48 = Arto 9048).
Then Globe used cat.nrs 2000 lower than Arto (Globe 7151 = Arto 9151).
To confuse matters, GG Globe also used the low numbers of a 7000 series.

I would like to know the highest nr with a K-prefix.
At present K-63 is known (by L. Hegamin).
Confirmed range in the 7100 seies is 7125-7160.
Blues dg lists 7063 by Hegamin, but this may be an error for K-63 (merely based
upon the Arto nr), but also a repressing.
