    The answer is yes.  I have many Dalhart records recorded for Pathe that are issued on both labels.  They may have been different takes but they were the same recording sessions.   Jack

Of course the Pathe records were 75 cents -- but were the exact same 
recordings as the 35 cent Perfects.  In the Syndicate discussion that I 
videotaped in 1987 between Lenny Kunstadt and Carl Kendzioria they 
discuss the Chicago Loopers record of which a couple of copies on 
Perfect are known but had never shown up on Pathe Actualle.  I wonder 
why ANY copies of Pathe Actualles that are duplicated on Perfect ever 
show up!!
