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).
