Notes: #11
is a party record; the 78 has the same recording on both sides. #12 is evidently a private recording, most likely
a demo. The Cinematone label is the
same one found on the "Penny Phono" 12" variable-speed long-playing
records custom-made for miniature jukeboxes ca. 1939 (Spike Jones was their
musical director for a time). However, this is a conventional 10" 78, with
the title and artist written on the label in pen and ink (along with a nice
drawing of a tiger's head). A large Columbia logo is embossed on the blank back
side (they evidently did the pressing).
