Artrio Angelus Rolls Recoded as Recordo "C" Rolls
By David Krall

At the beginning of 1926, QRS took over the production of Artrio
Angelus rolls.  Also at that time they started to issue rolls for
the new Recordo C system.

Already in mid-1925, as the acquisition of Artrio Angelus rolls was
in the works, P.K. Van Yorx (head of the Wilcox & White recording
studio) was already coding rolls for the Recordo model C and recoding
select Artrio Angelus rolls to the C system. When issued in the
Recordo C format, the recoded Artrio Angelus rolls had an A prefix.

My question for those knowledgeable of the C system: Were the Artrio
Angelus rolls also issued in the Recordo B format?

Thanks,
