Re: an announcement on a blue amberol cylinder?
There were three versions of The Preacher and The Bear on Blue Amberols;
First version:Flat title end,no announcing.
Second version: Beveled end with announcing (taken from wax Amberol #18).
Third version:Beveled end, dubbed from Diamond Disc.

There are a few announced Blue Amberols. Search the board for more info.
The announced copy of Preacher and the Bear is "take 2", as evidenced by 2 dots ("..") after the word "Pat'd" on the rim.

Re: an announcement on a blue amberol cylinder?
The announced version was made from 4 minute wax Amberol masters. I am of the opinion that it was re-recorded very early in the celluloid era in order to give an unannounced BA for sale. I have the announced version on both 4 minute wax and Blue Amberol cylinders, the unannounced Blue Amberol (which is not a dub but a live cylinder recording), the dub from Diamond Disc and the 2 minute Edison wax cylinder version. Along with all of that, I have it on a 4 minute U. S. Everlasting cylinder and a Victor batwing... all by Arthur Collins.
