(being revised), but here are some details I saved long ago.

One of the things I try to acquire (over and above 78rpm records in general)
is/are records with "significant" catalog numbers (i.e. Vi 20000 and such)
like the above. Having obtained it from Mr. Lehman...and actually SEEN
it...I now have a question...?!
The disc, presumably the first Gennett "Electrobeam?! features two
sides credited to Milton Charles ("house" organ at Chicago's Tivoli
Theater per the labels. Now, IIRC these sides were recorded by
Orlando Marsh for his Autograph label...and then leased to many
companies, since Marsh's primitive electric recordings offered
the bass needed for pipe-organ recordings.
The disc (like ALL Gennetts of that period) shows no matrix or
control numbers; as well there doesn't seem to be an AUTOGRAPH.TXT
Abrams file...?! Does anyone have the discographic data on:
Milton Charles Sometime KAHN-FIORITO
ditto Serenade DONNELLY-ROMBERG
Was this one of the Autograph pipe-organ records? If so, which one?!
