One finds
embossed Recording Angel trademarks
on early HMV Monarch and HMV Concert
records with either single or double
catalog numbers. It has rarely been
observed on His Master’s Voice labels
(see figure on the left below).
In March 1924 the Gramophone Company
decided to issue almost all of their
International Celebrity Artists recordings
on double-sided discs. These all had
red labels, with the design described
in the Outline below under V.A1.7.
and V.A1.8. The record numbers
began with DA 100 and DB 100
for 10- and 12-inch discs, respectively.

The
next listing was the "Catalogue
No. 2 – Records of Unique and Historical
Interest." The discs listed in
this catalog bore labels, shown below,
with the phrase
THIS
RECORD IS LISTED IN CATALOGUE NO. 2
WHICH CONTAINS RECORDS OF UNIQUE AND
HISTORICAL INTEREST NOT INCLUDED IN
GENERAL RECORD CATALOGUE
in
two arcs above a smaller framed trademark.

The
stickers shown above were placed over
the Dog trademark, so that they could
be sold as Gramophone Company records
in the Western hemisphere.
The four labels below were printed in
the Aussig pressing plant in Czechoslovakia
north of Prague, and have the following
phrase in an arc above the Cupid:
"Hergestellt von der Oesterr. Grammophon-Gesellschaft
m. b. H., Aussig a E."
The lower record was recorded on 21
January 1911, and reissued from the
Aussig plant, which was built in 1926,
following the end of the acoustical
recording era. The stamper was embossed
with the Recording Angel trademark at
the bottom edge of the label. A number
of Victor recordings seem to have been
pressed at this plant, including at
least one Caruso, matrix number A3103,
with a Schallplatte "Grammophon"
label as shown above.
