Dear John, I just read Steve Ramm's reply which is basically correct BUT many of the early Edison Bell pressings did not show the true matrix number but a control number (also in a 2000 series) so you can't take anything at face value. If the disc in question is a British issue then dates should be found fairly accurately; if it is a Romanian recording then not so sure. Again I think many discs issued on Winner in the UK (as successor to the orginal Bell label) were continued on Bell Disc overseas. I have a copy of the entire Winner listings with exact recording dates so if you can confirm both matrix numbers, and title/artist info, then if it was issued on Winner I can help.
