This reminds me of the "World's Greatest Music" 78 issues, put out by Eli 
Oberstein and made to look as much as possible like the legitimate World's 
Greatest Operas/Symphonies produced by Victor for various newspapers in the 
early 40s. Obie took most of his material from Telefunken 78s (he may have had 
some tenuous legitimate arrangement) and virtually everything was issued 
anonymously. Schumann's Violin Concerto appeared on this label, at a time when 
the score had only recently been unearthed and the only two recordings were by 
Yehudi Menuhin and Georg Kulenkampff.
