| Comments | Texte du contenu ci-joint. Rare disque à pâte couleur crème, destiné aux auditions publiques sur phonographes automatiques. À propos d'Omnium Pathéphone et son fondateur, Albert Bernard (1882-1968), voir notice nécrologique dans Billboard, octobre 1968, vol. 40, n° 80, p. 55.

Bernard began his career in 1906 when he joined the Pathe Brothers concern and was promoted to assistant commercial director only two years later.

He branched off on his own in 1924, first founding Pathephone Societe in San Sebastian, Spain, and later, in Paris, Omnium-Pathephone. In 1926 he founded a new company, Industrie Phonographique, which he headed until it and Omnium Pathephone were grouped under Pathe-freres Ltd. Bernard made his first transatlantic contacts in 1938 when, as head of a new company, Art, Technique et Commerce (Arteco), he acquired the Columbia Broadcasting System licence for France and founded the Société CBS Disques in France.
