Description

For sale in this lot are 4 very old records. All measure 7" across and I think all would be 78rpm given their age. I cannot test them for playability so description is from viewing only.

Individual descriptions :-

1. One blank side with REPRODUCED IN HANOVER stamped on it.

Playing side has "E.BERLINER'S GRAMOPHONE - Covered by English and Continental Patents."

"Trade Mark" with an image of a small angel holding a quill feather sitting on circular record grooves.

Stamped on right "2522". Scratched on  left under trademark is the date  7- 2 -01 with "Chevalier" (not completely sure of spelling as handwriting is poor) scribed underneath.

Hand written scribed into record is the title "The Fallen Star" Sung by Louis Bradfield. London.

This record is very slightly warped and has a fair amount of wear and scratches.

2. One non playing side with large GRAMOPHONE logo on it (as in picture) with REPRODUCED IN HANOVER stamped on it.
