Description

78 vintage Edison Record 50999 - Christmas - very uncommon record from 1921 - Harry Humphrey descriptive talk as Santa Claus hiding in the phonograph - actually a bit spooky

Santa Claus Hides in Your Phonograph by Harry E. Humphrey
b/w
The Christmas Cobwebs by Edna Bailey

Visually graded (I no longer own an Edison disc player) - rates E to E+, very clean
I did play it on my Dual 1218 phonograph with 2.7 mil stylus, no skips, clear sound of vocals.  But because this is a vertically recorded record not designed for modern lateral stylus playback, this method requires the volume to be turned up very high and produces a lot of unnecessary static.   

Please look at the photos.
