This evening, a fellow gave me the 6" Emerson, No. 548, "The Peace Patrol,"
with music composed by Charlie Chaplin, and played by Metropolitan Military
Band (Irony right there). Noticed the dead wax includes more than the
matrix number, it has Charlie's autograph stamped on to the disc as well.
Was this common, done by other performers, composers? From about 1916, but
unsure of date.
