Now, to answer your original question...
1) Much discographic information concerning Edison Diamond Discs has been
published;
however, I don't know how much has been "web-ized!"
2) Paper Edison labels regularly fall off of the records; in fact, IIRC, it
is possible
to buy replacements, but they have to be written out...!
