It was in a Pathe sleeve. http://www.flickr.com/photos/verylastexcitingmoment/4097130732/ I also have Oriental 5236, again with only 5236-A & -B stamped. Do these numbers match up with Brunswicks? Sorry I don't know anything about the label or any of the performers. -Franz On Sun, Apr 11, 2010 at 7:18 PM, Dick Spottswood <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > A couple look like they could be Brunswick pressings, but Ross Laird's > Brunswick book shows Chinese material from the West Coast & in China > issued in Brunswick's 49000 & 51000 series from 1929-31.
