Notes
The dates for the “Old series” session are thought to be either 2/9/1903 or 5/26/1903. Some of these may be remakes of earlier pre-matrix 12" recordings. Fagan and Moran created a matrix set they termed "OS," for "Old series." The designation represents a set of masters made at the end of the pre-matrix era.
Footnote in EDVR vol. 2 notes that data for -64 to -70 are reconstructed, as these pages are missing from the recording ledgers.
A 12" (DeLuxe) copy of Francisco's "Lost chord" on 31078, carrying no visible C-Matrix number, is possibly Pre-Matrix, perhaps recorded at the 2/11/1903 session. See [PM-]1963.
