[78-L] Gracie Fields puzzlement

[Han Enderman]

Vic(C) 120927-B as by Gracie Fields / With Orch. cond. by Ben Frankel
(but LMS 334 gives only H. Parr-Davies at the piano).
Mx 0GF-6 "Land Of Hope And Glory" is on 120927 as "With Choir, Organ & Orchestra".

Apparently these Vic(C)s were issued much later, since 120920 has 17-Nov-39 titles 
and 120930 has 15-May-40 recordings. Is LMS release date known?
Vic 120931 Stop and Shop at the Co-op. Shop / The Birthday  Song on label as
With Piano, Recorded in England from a Broadcast.
Why did they make a special GF mx series?

>>> Gracie Fields recorded "The Biggest Aspidastra in the World" (I know that's the 
incorrect spelling, but it's on every issue so deal with it) twice for Regal 
Zonophone. 
0GF-4-1 with Harry Parr-Davies, piano & orchestra, November 10/38, 
supposedly rejected but actually issued on Canadian Victor 120927, and 0GF-18-1 
with orchestra conducted by George Scott-Wood, November 18/38, and per Rust, 
issued on Regal-Zonophone MR 3001, Canadian Victor 120927 (no it wasn't) and 
Liberty Music Shop L-334. The LMS issue sounds the same as the Canadian Victor 
issue and credits Parr-Davies as pianist on the label, but it's a dub and not a 
very good one (P-30801). Does anyone know what was actually issued where?
