IF they are Victors they are probably Victor Arden-Phil Ohmen sides; "Dance of the Paper Dolls" et al. Not a fan so I can't be specific.

Subject: [78-L] Cartoon music from commercial releases...
Can anyone identify the remainder of these tunes?A few years ago (2003 to be exact!), a question was asked about music heard on a variety of cartoons that were seen frequently on early TV and have been issued in "collections" of early cartoons. I posted mp3s of them on my website and four out of nine were identified back then by some very knowledgeable collectors including Vincent Fitzpatrick, John Wilby, Piet Schreuders (Beauhunks), David Lennick, and Vince Giordano (Nighthawks).Apparently vocals were cut out for the cartoon use, which added to theconfusion, and were definitely a surprise, although it makes ultimate sense.So far these have been ID'd:-http://67.210.127.4/TRACK3.mp3George Olsen, "Where'd You Get Those Eyes." Victor, 1926.The vocal has been cut out. It would have started at 1:32.CONFIRMEDhttp://67.210.127.4/TRACK5.mp3George Olsen. Victor. "Just a Little Thing Called Rhythm."The vocal is cut out at 1:30.CONFIRMEDhttp://67.210.127.4/TRACK7.mp3"Meadowlark." George Olsen, on Victor, 1926CONFIRMEDhttp://67.210.127.4/TRACK8.mp3"Dancing Shadows", band is Paul Whiteman. The sax solois by Frank Trumbauer.CONFIRMEDI still think they could turn out to be ALL from Victor. I believe for a whilethey were licensing their commercially released recording material to anyonewho wanted to pay to use it, which is how some of it appeared in cartoonsthat otherwise wouldn't have had a sound track. Much cheaper than hiring acomposer and an orchestra to write music to fit the picture!These were copied from tracks of cartoons, probably originally silent, thathad a sound track added later to extend their marketability as sound becamethe standard.The following tunes are as yet still unidentified... please listen to themand see if anything sounds familiar:-http://67.210.127.4/TRACK1.mp3http://67.210.127.4/TRACK2.mp3http://67.210.127.4/TRACK4.mp3http://67.210.127.4/TRACK6.mp3http://67.210.127.4/TRACK9.mp3You should be able to just click on the above links to listen to them....
