Does anyone have a listing or better yet a discography of the Mercury MG10000 series, the first LP's?

Why bother re-inventing the wheel? There IS a discography with a numerical listing of this and all other Mercury series. Ruppli amd Novitsky's "The Mercury Labels." This 10000 series is on pages 494 thru 499 of Volume 5 and the 10-inch 15000 series is on pages 482-3. I'm surprised that Tom, of all people, doesn't apparently have this discography set! Actually, I only have volume 4 and 5 which popped up astonishingly cheap as new loose volumes on a book site last year. Vol 4 includes the 69-91 era and ALL the classical recordings back to the beginning. Vol 5 is the numerical listings and artist index. So if I had to have only two of the five, those were the best to find. I'll be glad to provide Tom with photocopies of these pages, as keyboarding all of this on the list would be very time and bandwidth consuming.
