Missing Titles, Polyphon 19-5/8", 22" & 24-1/2"
By Kevin McElhone

I thought it was time, after 10 years work to let members of MMD know
which discs I still need full details of to complete the Polyphon
catalog for 19 5/8" discs.

  This needs a little explanation.

Polyphon 19 5/8" discs run in the number series 5,000 and 50,000.
Polyphon 22", which is 19-5/8" musical arrangement plus bells,
run in the 9,000 number series.  Polyphon 24-1/2" run in the series
from 4,000.

So disc numbers 5126, 9126 and 4126 all have the same tune but were
issued on the 3 respective sizes of disc.  This means that you can fill
in the gaps for me if you have _any_ of the above 3 types of Polyphon.
Don't be shy or selfish -- please have a look at your discs; you may be
holding an important piece of the jigsaw.

I need the titles and composer for the following please:

5126  5127  5128  5129  5130  5131  5406  5618  5753  5754
5878  5880  5999
