Description
After collecting for over 50 years...Its time to starting clearing out a number of my recordings. Most of these will be in the 1898 to 1910 period with a few exceptions going up into the 1930s. I've enjoyed these recordings and I hope you will too. These records will be shipped in a new box wrapped with cardboard and bubble wrap to protect them. Tracking info will be provided.........
Very Rare - Universal Talking Machine Co. Disc Record. Coon Band Contest - 1900. Good condition....
Note.... this record plays with.no problems, no hung grooves, skips, but does have a very tight short crack. (See pictures) The crack does not sound when played. I have owned this record for many years and the tight crack has stayed the same. Many of these Universal Discs developed fine cracks. Afterwards, perhaps a due to a composition refining, that does not happen. "But do know this fine tight crack does not sound on my turntable. Also, It does not affect the playing at all."...
I would not suggest playing a record this old, delicate and rare on a steel needled machine. We are dealing with a record that is 122 years old. It is a Berliner sounding record, and a Cakewalk March. Plays well for a 1900 disc record. Oddly it does not say Zonophone anywhere..
