Piccola Meraviglia & Libri Che Canta Discography

As discussed on the History page, it is likely that the first of the Libri Che Canta was published before the launch of the Piccola Meraviglia records, as evidenced by its having records with the Little Wonder label.

Piccola Meraviglia Records

I am in the process of creating a discography for the Piccola Meraviglia records, which likely number in the PM series from 1 to 197, and in the BY series from 17 to 161. I will post it here when it's ready. Once posted, it will continue to be a work in progress as I continue to gather information from sales listings and catalogues. If you have any information to contribute to this effort, please contact me.

Libri Che Canta

These books contain no dating information whatsoever and therefore publication dates can only be estimated based on advertisements and catalogue listings (see the Advertisements page). The first ad I have found for these books appeared in 1923 and only mentions the first book, as does an ad from 1925. I don't have any catalogues from 1926 or 1927 and, by the time of a July 1928 catalogue, books 1-9 are listed. I don't have a catalogue from 1929 and, by the time of a September 1930 catalogue, book 10 is listed. A 1936 catalogue still only goes up to book 10. A 1937 catalogue does not include these books, but the records from book 11 are included for sale as single records, suggesting that book 11 was available. A July-December 1938 catalogue does include book 11. I do not have any advertisements or catalogues that include book 12. If you have any catalogues or advertisements for these books, please contact me.
