Hey, I have that one in my collection! Not the sleeve though, sadly. But both songs are good!epigramophone wrote: Fri Aug 23, 2024 4:34 am Imperial featured his image on their record labels and covers :

Re: Jack Payne
Jack Payne is also on the little advertisement records that Imperial issued, with an abbreviated version of his theme song on one side and him talking on the other. I have a couple of these, they come in little card boxes and are cute with their little sleeves: a nice contrast to the 50 cm Pathés. The one made by Gramophone to the queen's doll house is even smaller, but when they show up for sale the price is so high that I never had the appetite to buy one.
