		It was reported that the company lost at least one hundred zinc masters that had not been pressed, as well as all of its machines and equipment.

		By 1914 The Gramophone Company was selling nearly four million records a year, but the outbreak of the First World War that year caused serious disruption to its and Columbiaâs business as their factories were largely turned over to the manufacture of munitions.
		During the mid-1920s the Gramophone Company began releasing double-sided discs and in 1926 electrical recording was introduced with consequent dramatic improvements in quality.
