In going through my Edison Diamond Disc Records by tenor GIOVANNI MARTINELLI I find that the serial numbers & take indications (usually a letter but a number in some cases) are not uniform:
82036 TOSCA: Recondita armonia (1215-A)/TOSCA: E lucevan le stelle (1216-A) 82351 AIDA: Celeste Aida (19047-A)/MARTHA: M'appari (19050-A) 82505 TOSCA: E lucevan le stelle (mirror image 1516-2)/VENETIAN INSTRUMENTAL QT. - Sweet Spirit Hear My Prayer (mirror image 1208-2) 82507 MANON LESCAUT: Donna non vidi mai (mirror image 1235-14)/REED MILLER - CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA: O Lola (Siciliana) (mirror image 2007-19) 82515 LA BOHEME: Che gelida manina (1229-2)/RIGOLETTO: La donna e mobile (1231-4) 82515 LA BOHEME: Che gelida manina (1229-A)/RIGOLETTO: La dionna e mobile (1231-C) Can anyone sort this out, especially a numeral being used to designate take instead of the usual letter? Would especially like to hear what light experts Ron Dethlefson, George Copeland or Christian Zwarg could shed on this, assuming they are on the list. But would be happy to hear from any other collectors knowledgeable about diamond discs. If anyone has "E-mail" addresses for Ron & George I'd like to contact them directly.
