The highest number in the popular series actually issued was 5719, "If I Had You", played by John Gart on the Loew's Valencia Theater organ. Recorded for lateral/needle cut disc 14026 on March 27, 1929. One of only 2 Blue Amberols dubbed from a needle cut disc. 100 copies were ordered, but only 25 were ever pressed.

Additional numbers were assigned as high as 5732, but none were issued.
