I am curious to know on what label these recordings were issued (European,
perhaps?).  As I recall it (from the late 1930s, growing up outside
Philadelphia), there were two 12-inch singles bearing the RCA Victor label.
They contained Nos.  6 and 11 (on Victor 6881), and Nos.  20 and 24 (on
Victor 6838).  Victor has confirmed these numbers, and a date for the
recordings of 1933, when Gerhardt was 50.
