Aeolian-Vocalion discs

Ryan Barna Collection

Last modified: October 18, 2010

Most of the information in this discography was drawn from an Aeolian-Vocalion catalog, supplied by Quentin Riggs. Given that most of these discs are extremely rare, only a few have been inspected for matrix numbers (they are etched in the label area at the 9:00 position). If you can supply any further information please contact me.

The following four sides are credited to "Arthur Meadows." This has been reported as a Fields pseudonym, but no copies of the discs have been located for aural confirmation.
