The Piccavers come from Grammophon in Germany (later DG/Polydor). That 
connection continued when Brunswick took over Vocalion and lasted through the 
late 30s. And don't forget, Red Records Are Best.

Found 4 - 12 inch red wax Vocalion records, 1 single faced (52016), and 3 double faced (38011, 70031,&  70035), all opera - not my usual thing to get excited about except for the size of the records.  They seem to be in pretty good condition, too.  Yee-Haa!
