Victor ledgers: "Mr. T. Demetriades, present."
Victor blue history cards indicate that "A Yiddishe chasene" was to be reissued as catalog number 25-5088; however, a note on the BHC dated 11/18/1948 orders the selection to be withdrawn, labels and label slugs destroyed, and the catalog number to be used for a different title. It is not confirmed if any releases of 25-5088 containing "A Yiddishe chasene" were issued.
