John and David,

I've gone through my computer and have come up with a few label scans that I've already made and which are not yet in the gallery. I will send them to David by e-mail.

Also: feel free to pick those scans that I have provided to M G Thomas' "label index (http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/dancebands/In ... ndex-A.htm). Most of my contributions are to be found in the "Non UK labels" section. The following labels are all from my collection:

* Applaudando
* Ekophon
* Gallotone
* Karneval
* Matador
* Sonora
* Sundquist
* Supraphon
* Ultraphon

Hey John and David, Are you guys going to include any Edison Labels? As in the Edison DD labels?

Great job, do I have your permission the link this from my web site?
I may have some Australian labels if you are interested?

I posted three rare British labels under "Music" on 29 October.

Presumably one of our Moderators could transfer these images to the Gallery, but as I have several more unusual British labels which are not yet on there, could someone please explain to this new member how to send them direct to the Gallery.

Unfortunately, we cant.
The label gallery could have been one of the best label resources on the net, but the fellow that started this board disappeared off the face of the planet, and the tech guy who was doing the hard yakka posting all the labels in the gallery etc, got busy with his real job, so the gallery has laid dormant for the last couple years.
Apparently a couple members have offered to maintain the label gallery, but the offers have been refused.
Pity.

Thankyou. That explains why I received no response when I tried to email a picture of one of my labels direct to the Gallery organiser. :?

If and when someone else takes over, I have plenty more labels to add.
