[78-L] Acoustic/electrical recordings on same disc

[Dan Van Landingham]

Regarding the Victor Orthophonic recordings:it seems to me that somewhere I had a Victor ten inch record that used the pre 1926("scroll")label and inside an oval there 
were the letters "V.E.".I am assuming that this was one of the very first electrically
recorded Victor recordings.I can't remember the catalogue number off hand let alone the
name of the selection.The way I remember the Victor acoustics is by the solid yellow gold
band that was around the edge of the record.Canadian Victors I've seen used the same
label design but with a dark blue background.I saw these records in a North Bend,Oregon
Goodwill store several months ago.
