I'm looking for a "Hallelujah I'm a Bum" by Vernon Dalhart on Edison.

I don't think Dalhart recorded this for Edison. I can only find references to Eddie Kirk releasing this (and its usual coupling, The Bum Song) on Edison.

Dalhart did record and release Bum Song #2 on Edison, which is not the same song. He may have recorded Hallelujah, I'm a Bum for other companies though.

On Edison Diamond disc, it is the Bum song & Big rock candy mountain , i have these other versions on Columbia & Velvet tone, sorry pictures are so bad !run a search on E-Bay they will turn up eventually. Diamond disc is not quit as easy to find but i did find a nice copy after some time. I added one more you might like.I love these type of songs! Eric

Amberola,
Let me know if you want to sell your copy on Cylinder?
Thanks Eric

The bum dong number two would be nest to have. I'd like to have the diamond disc of not the bum song and big rock candy mountains.

The bum song*....... spell check

The diamond disc with the Bum Son #2 and Big Rock Candy Mountains.

The Hallelujah! I'm A Bum by Eddie Kirk is 52384-L is indeed is coupled with The Bum Song 52384-R
