A 6" disc recorded and pressed by the Gramophone Company in 1926 using masters also available generally on Homo-Baby. It was short-lived with a catalogue running from 101 to 110. All recordings were acoustic and the dance records are played by an orchestra and in a style more suited to overtures and marches.
It is presumed these were made to be sold in a specific store, but it is not currently known which.  

Thanks to Bill Dean-Myatt for providing the label photo.

This listing is based on research by the lateArthur Badrock. Themusical director for all sides is George W. Byng.
