No, I didn't. However, I will likely be in touch with him and Allan Sutton once I receive the record I want to compare to Lyric 8108. It's on the way to me, hopefully in one piece...
Here's the record here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/291014454135?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 The side with no label has the slight possibility of being from a Lyric master. If so, it's possible this is the work of Clarion as Jacques Kohner started that after he left Lyraphone. If that's the case then there's no wonder why this label never got off the ground - a vertical cut record from 1921 would have been a bad business decision! Have yet to find anything on Electronic Phonograph Corporation in New York. Have found Electric Phonograph Company in Kalamazoo though. So I'll be try to figure out where both of these sides came from.

This is the vertical cut brand from Lyraphone. As far as a transfer, if anyone owns the record, I'm most interested in the A side. As for who the artist(s) is I don't know. It was probably announced either July or August 1917. I'm trying to compare against another unlabeled record of which, I believe, only the A side of this Lyric record was used, to see if it's the same matrix. I have 8107 and 8109 but haven't come across a sighting of 8108 yet. Thanks for any help.
