Winnie-the-Pooh Songs

Stiff wraps. 12mo (7 3/8” x 8”); these three 78 rpm records (most likely a shellac-based limestone or slate material used by Victor at the time), recorded both sides under the Victor label; labeled 221-A and B, 222-A and B, and 223-A and B.

This edition not in a WorldCat library; two libraries hold sound recordings published in 1934 as "More Winnie-the-Pooh Songs" Near fine / Fine. Item #1039

The pictorial disc features Christopher Robin, Piglet, and Pooh. It is notable that Pooh is not dressed in the red shirt that Slesinger trademarked, and that Pooh first wore in 1931. This recording is an early imprint by tenor Frank Luther with music by Harold Fraser-Simson, and the copyright held by Slesinger. Another early record by the Victor Talking Machine Co., shows a round folder label with Pooh wearing a red shirt and in multiple poses. No date appears on either and no further bibliographic information has been found.

The records in this collective series are labeled, "Winnie The Pooh, Christopher Robin Songs. (A.A. Milne-H. Fraser Simson) Frank Luther, Tenor with violin, clarinet and piano", with the following listed songs: 221-A: 1. Isn't It Funny, 2. Song Ho! For the Life of a Bear, 221-B Us Two, 222-A: The King's Breakfast, 222-B: The King's Breakfast, Concluded, 223-A: Buckingham Palace, 223-B: Vesper's.
