| A fairly elusive label, Grafton
records were available from 1924 until 1927, initially with a green
label, changing to red quite soon. U.S. matrices were from Emerson &
Federal to start with, but subsequently, all were from Pathe, both
American and English masters. Numbering started at 9000 and may have
reached 9300 by the time the label was withdrawn. I am listing all the issues I can find in various discographies and my own collection. If you have any information to add, please email me. |
Thank you to the following people who have provided extra details: Bill Dean-Myatt.
