"The [Bluebird] popular series began in August 1932 at serial number 1800. These were 8" records which changed to 10" at 1810 and continued to 1853 by May 1933. The colour of the label was dark blue and black. In May 1933 the numbering system changed to B-5000. In November 1938 it jumped from B-7875 to B-10000. In September 1942 it reached B-11594 and then changed to 30-0801. It reached 30-0834 in March 1945, at which time the Bluebird label ended. From 1946 to 1950 some Bluebird recordings were re-released using the original Bluebird serial number on the RCA Victor label. The notation "Bluebird Series" appeared around the rim of the label. In July 1949 the Bluebird label was revived at 31-0001, and a handful were issued over the next few months." Other series: B-7876 to B-9042 Country, Race, and Rhythm and Blues, Canada and U.S.A.November 1938 to September 1942 In November [Race: October] 1942 Bluebird altered its numerical system to four-figure serials prefixed by a two-figure category code. 21- Country, (U.S.A.) 30- Popular, (U.S.A. and Canada), 30-0801 (November 1942) to 30-0834 (March 1945) 31- Popular, (U.S.A.), RCA Victor - Bluebird series, only a handful ever used beginning at 31-0001 (July 1949) 33- Country, (U.S.A.), 33-0500 (November 1942) to 33-0539 (December 1945) 34- Race, (U.S.A.), 34-0700 (October 1942) to 34-0748 (May 1946) 35- Race, (U.S.A.), 35-0001 (July 1949) "[...] Bluebird used a buff label, a staff label, and a dog label in Canada. In the U.S.A. Bluebird had two varieties of dog label which we call "dog 3" (because it had three lines of type around the bottom of the label) and "dog 2" (two lines)." Bray & Litchfield
