AN EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS BEAUTIFUL AND RARE ADVERTISING PICTURE LABEL 78
THE POPULAR PAIR (hot foxtrot)
FORGET-ME-NOT waltz
Mike Thomas writes about this record
The was a one-off record to advertise SIemens' Opal and Pearl light bulbs. There's a certain amount of mystery about the record, but I would assume it was given away, probably at an exhibition. Although I've never seen a copy in a special sleeve. The mystery is that it has a catalogue number, which you wouldn't expect for a special issue. The record is of the "unbreakable" format, probably made by Worldecho or Duophone (both q.v.). The band, however, has a Piccadilly label sound to it, so maybe it was a contract recording.
Unusually this record is in nice condition with no digs in the surface on either side - and side B is surprisingly hot!
