At first glance I would say it is typical common Edison artists and no killers 
there. However, I am not familiar with the California Entertainers. Does anyone 
know if that is a pseudonym for a famous jazz band of from that era ? I don't 
recognize that name as a pseudonym used by the California Ramblers (usually The 
Golden Gate Orchestra on Edison).
