The Cameos I've heard from 1926 *seem* to be electric. Seem to be. But I don't know
for certain. Here are some samples for list members to judge for themselves:

Horses by The Seven Little Polar Bears [Reser group], voc. Tom Stacks, ca. 14 Apr. 1926:

I take it, then, that the earliest Romeo and Cameo electrics were recorded by Pathé, or did Cameo briefly have its own system?  If not, it seems Cameo started issuing electric recordings even later than Edison.  Just curious. PC
