The following is an attempt at listing the rare B series Vocalions which were available for a short time in 1927-28. Many of the issues have a paste-over label with "Kildare" on it across the "Vocalion" name . Also many have a past-on label with the words "Marketed by British Brunswick, Ltd" on it. Any additions or corrections will be welcome, including confirmation of what actually is on B-209 which has two quite different reported issues (see below).
