Where? Those numbers (36257/9) aren't matrices; they are the 12-inch  
Black-Label Victor catalog numbers in Album G-3.

Matrices 036257/9 are within a block of Hollywood matrix numbers, mid- 
June 1939, not listed in the Abrams file. And only three 12-inch 78- 
rpm matrices wouldn't be nearly enough to record a symphony (unless  
we're talkin' VERY fine grooves...<grin>).

Take care,


Joe
