Notes
The Victor blue history card for this matrix has not been found. Issued recordings are probable but not confirmed as from this matrix/take.
Some discs released under catalog number 20-1970 were not part of the P-161 record set. "O, little town of Bethlehem" replaces "White Christmas" on the non-record set discs.
Victor ledgers indicate that takes 1B and 1C were electrically transferred from take 2 on September 5th, 1946 at Victor's New York studio #6 "to furnish new master."
Victor ledgers: "Union musicians used"; "Mr. E. Oberstein, present."
