[78-L] Reused numbers?

Has the orig. question been solved?
There was a 68000-D flag series; 1st issue Rosa Ponselle, La Bohème, mx 98062 (from scan).
68019-D = Pablo Casals, Kol Midrei, mx 98068.
68021-D = Toscha Seidel, mx 98099.
68027-D = Casals, mx 49813.
My last label image in this series is 68049-D, Riccardo Stracciari, mx 49180.

Checking images, there was also a 67000-D flag series, continuing on blue label, 
with Imported recordings, and apparently this series continued into the 30s.
G-67998-D is Honegger Pacific 231 (in 2 parts, Imported), mx XXP-7038,
on blue Viva-tonal label.
Earlier in this series we find Stravinsky, & Ravel's Bolero by Mengelberg.
After 67999-D the series continues in the 68000s, and also gets later blue label types.
68095-D = Milhaud, Creation, mx LX-1582/85.

A famous example of double numbers is in the UK Parlophone R-3000s.
In the 20s this series (also using an E-prefix) has some interesting jazz.
IIRC, Parlophone started in the 30s with an R-100 series, which in the 50s reached the 3000s.
And so an Arthur Sims has the same nr as a Humphrey Lyttelton.

>>> It's also the earliest recording of Till Eulenspiegel. Wood conducted it 
often, yet this heavily trimmed version is his only recording of anything by 
Richard Strauss. Despite the truncation, it's still great fun!

I posted a transfer of it on my website back in June, along with Strauss's 
1922 recording of Don Juan (which has just one minor cut of 24 bars)

By the way, it really is "complete" on two sides. Okay, I lied about the
"complete".
