What year would this label be, having a hard time finding it. I know the bat wing dates but the copyright in the upper right has me confused on a date.

American Victor Batwing records date from 1913-1925. His Master's Voice Batwing records were into the 1930's. The record, No. 19, shown is such a record. The clue is radio broadcast. My guess is late 20's-early 30's.

Thanks for the info, the this was the record I was wondering about. I know Waller did a couple before 1926. Do think this is pre 26?

That one is more likely issued about 1947.
