List of Regina and Polyphon Disc Titles

Jeff,  Go to http://antiquemusicbox.us/discs.htm and click on the
link at the top of the page to see the Regina Catalog of 15-1/2" discs.
Updates to titles are always gratefully accepted as this catalog is
incomplete, especially in the higher numbered discs.  Kevin McElhone
also has this list on his web site.

15-3/4" Polyphon disc numbers and titles are identical to Regina 15"
discs for numbers 1001-1160.  Regina used Polyphon arrangements
early on, after which Regina began arranging their own tunes.  Perhaps
someone out there has such a list for Polyphon discs.

8" Regina discs were cataloged by Gary Stevenson in the Spring 1986
issue of the MBSI Journal.  However, I am not certain if the number
and titles are the same for this size discs between Polyphon and
Regina, and if so, for how long they used Polyphon disc arrangements.
Someone else may weigh in on that.

Musically yours,
