Nowhere on the label is there any mention of it being an electrical recording, however there is a "W" in a circle in the dead wax.  In all the copyright information at the bottom of the label, the last date mentioned is 1922.  Was this label used at the beginning of the electrical era or for experimental electrical recordings?
