I have a Birch Model 72, and I really enjoyed hearing "Hail Purdue" played on yours. How sweet it is! Thank you, well done.

What year was that recording made?

The date is not shown. Here are some lines from the cover that give a clue or two.

"The offering of this first edition of an album of recordings by the famous Purdue Band makes available to the public several of the favorite marches of this organization collected and brought together for the first time." "The Purdue Military Band is a department cooperating with the Reserve Officer Training Corps at Purdue and, as such, furnishes music for parades, reviews, and ceremonies."

Furthermore, and in conclusion, I present this additional quote from the book of recordings. "Fittingly enough, Director Emrick is a product and a 1908 graduate of Purdue Univeristy. His service began when he assumed the directorship of the band in his sophomore year. He has been a major influence in the creation of large university bands throughout the nation. Under his leadership the band has reached in 1950 and all-time high in membership of 180 men." There is more on Emrick and the band.
