There is a listing on eB auction site Item number: 150478693484 
 for what is described as a 16" US Army Reserve program
Whitaker's Wax Works with the following content:
BING CROSBY-WHERE THE BLUE OF THE NIGHT MEETS THE GOLD OF THE DAY
MORAN AND MACK-THE TWO BLACK CROWS IN JAIL
WILL ROGERS-WILL'S FIRST POLITICAL SPEECH
WENDELL HALL-IT AIN'T GONNA RAIN NO MO'
BEN BERNIE-BACK IN YOUR OWN BACK YARD
NORA BAYES-OVER THERE

Please let us know more about these transcriptions and their content -
  Is it actually 16"? -  seems very big for 6 tracks unless these selections are extended excerpts from radio programs.
  Was this an official US Army Reserve series, or something produced at that location only, or other???
  are the selections from 78's or broadcast sources?

Thanks!
Best wishes, Thomas.
