The early Edison 4 minute wax amberol cylinder records included announcements at the beginning. What was the number of the last record to include such an announcement?

If I am reading the Excel Discography correctly, 410 was the last to be announced. Other sources should be checked.
4M-410
1909.12
Ada Jones (fV), Len Spencer (Bar), (O), Edward Meeker (ann)

Curious too the number of announced Amberols which were later available as Blue Amberols. Off the top of my head I know of three:
-The Preacher and The Bear 1560 (I have two versions one announced and one unannounced).
-Morte Otello 28140.
-Cavalry Charge 23330. This one is interesting as it is listed in the British series and from the catalog number, it was published in around 1915 in this form.
