That's a fairly late number in the 300 series, which was Victor's earliest 
10" record series.I'm pretty sure that the performer on yours. Frank Seiden, 
made a lot of other Victor records around the same time period. He was a 
magician as well as a singer/comic. These early pre-dogs as well as the 
early dog Victors do not have the "sunken" labels that all Victors have from 
1903 on. These labels are flush, so you can see all the information that was 
on the original master.
