[78-L] RCA 40-xxxx Series [was RCA 44- Dash Series]

[Han Enderman]

No, Ty lists many 20- of course, plus 15- (Red Seal De Luxe), 21- (country) & 25- (Jewish).
But it seems RCA used almost every nr through 58- or poss. 70-.
What kind of issues are 40-00xx (i.e. below 0100) ?

>>> 40-4000 is Metronome All-Out//Look Out..Metronome All Stars. 40-4001/2 were in album HJ-8, Esquire's All American Hot Jazz. Victor usually started each series with the zero so there must be 40-0100 and 0101...
!!
but wait a minute, the 1948 Victor catalog's price list starts the ten-inch series at 40-0076! Does Ty list these?

> HJ-10 (Esquire Jazz 2) is 40-0134 (Ellington!)/37 (4x78 I assume).
> 40-138/9 (Teagarden/Muggsy) have no album nr on the labels.

> HJ-11 is Girls in Jazz (which records??)
> HJ-13 not known to me
> HJ-14 contains 40-4004/... (12" Armstrong; IIRC 3 78s).
> 40-4001/2 are Esq 1946 Award Winners; were these issued together ??
