Okay, Mark, you have been vindicated!
On checking Walter C. Allen's Paramount ledgers I have found your issue 
but on Puritan 11290. Your Triangle 11290 also fits in here because both 
originated at BD&M (Bridgeport Die & Machine). There is no connection 
with the Paramount L- matrix series. There were no concurrent Paramount 
or other issues for mxes LL 103-2 or LL 116-2.
"Hugh Donovan" shows up on a number of the LL- issued.
The Anita Miller side shows up as "Lullaby from 'Erminie' " not as "Ermine."
I knew I'd seem this LL- matrix series in my travels! The first of only 
eight LL- matrix issues shows up on Pur 11221 and ends up with Pur 
11325. Highest LL- number is LL 210-2; lowest is LL 103-2. I have no 
explanation where the other ~200 LL's can be found, where they were 
recorded, or what LL stands for, if anything.
So there you go!
Thanks for the chase. It was fun.
Malcolm

However, I have not before encountered the "LL" prefix in a Paramount family recording before (it's not "L," as in the Wisconsin Chair-made matrices from 1929 forward.) Anyone know where these sides originated, and a date of recording?
