Hi everyone,
Record looks fantastic, and plays great, with the expected little bit of background noise.
Comes in an old Columbia Recording Corporation paper sleeve.
About RCA Victor Program Transcription album discs:
In 1931, RCA Victor tried to introduce a long playing disc. They recorded music at 33-1/3 rpm on a standard 10 or 12 inch shellac disc — or more often an early plastic material called "Victrolac" which seemed to be softer and wore out more quickly than shellac. The grooves on the record were the same as those used on 78 RPM discs, not the microgrooves used by Columbia when they introduced their 33-1/3 disc on vinyl in 1948. This was a short lived experiment because at the height of the depression few people could afford the very expensive machines needed to play the Program Transcription discs. Also, the discs had poor fidelity and the heavy tone arms of that period wore the discs out quickly. The records were produced from 1931 to 1933, but some discs were kept in the RCA catalog until 1939.
