Each song is 1 minute 30 seconds or shorter. First side was 4 minutes 28 seconds total.  It's definitely 50s.  The fact that the catalog number has a prefix of '78' tells me it was when other formats were popular as well.  I saw on another website another disk by Air Check they claimed was ca. 1952.  It didn't have the '78' prefix for the catalog number.

So I'm curious where they're from and date range.

Short songs or fine grooves, like those long-playing 78s of the early 50s?
