There's at least an 11-year gap between the Brunswicks and Columbias. Don't 
forget, during the Depression NO American orchestras were recording except the 
Philly under Stokowski..Columbia even got the Boston Symphony one time, and 
recorded it live and screwed it up (notes missed).

Were these two separate recording contracts or did this orchestra move from one label to the other when the labels themselves merged?  As far as I've seen, Sokoloff never appeared on Columbia nor Rodzinski on Brunswick.
