IIRC, these late-issue Lauder records were pressed from old wax Amberol masters, right?

I thought these were dubbed from Diamond Disks.

After #2492 or so, almost all were, but Edison reissued a bunch of earlier stuff, seemingly at random. Ron Dethlefson's "Edison Blue Amberol Recordings 1912-1914" (second edition) discusses and lists all these on pp. 144-146. This one was originally recorded for wax Amberol 12387 (British series) and released in August of 1911.

Lauder never recorded on DD, as he had an exclusive disc contract with Victor.
