Right, Cosmopolitan 7501, with "Rockin' Chair" on the flip. Rust lists that
one
as well as Biltmore 1014.
I don't suppose the Goldkette included the suppressed opening? That does
exist.
I've held a test pressing and put my DNA on it.

No, the Goldkette ain't got the extra opening - just a straight boot of both
sides of the Victor "Special" - waltz and fox-trot versions. (Or as Agatha
Christie's detective Hercule Poirot referred to it, "the trot of the fox.")
My copy is pressed on strange greasy-looking vinyl.
