Wow, I had heard from German Collectors that German Artiphone had colored and multi-color Vinyl records as early as 1929, but this is the first example of a US MADE early Vinyl REcord.
This 3" record is a rare ADVERTISING JINGLE for a San Francisco or LA producer of Schwartz GINGER ALE:
Pictures are fuzzy - sorry. Print on record is clean and sharp
No 367/ 368
By Mac (McClintock?) with piano, performed in the manner of a folk ballad style singing and talking:
Schwartz Ginger Ale Song - Side
The land of the free, now that we have prohibition, our glasses are still filled with bubbles of good old Ginger Ale.
Play this on your Phonograph - Side
To the tune of Jingle Bells:
Ginger Ale, Ginger Ale, drink it every day
bubbles so up your nose
make you feel so gay

A note to grading Victrola/ Pathe/ Shellac 78 rpm discs:
Pls note that I try to be extremely conservative and consistent in my grading. All records are graded with the same criteria, regardless of genre.
I noticed that my grading seems to be more conservative than what I have seen from other sellers, so here some notes.
Surface VISUAL GRADING:
EXCELLENT - clean and shiny, as new. E minus is the same, with light scuffing.
Very Good Plus - Clean, with a little more scuffing. Some grooves spots may have some light greying. Little if any distortion.
Very Good - a clean copy, some scuffing, some greying on a single groove or a few small groove bands. Enjoyable record, maybe light distortion on some top notes.
=> Everything up to here is a great and enjoyable record
Very Good Minus - May have areas of visible wear, may have some scuffing or dulled surface. Still a great record, but ticks, pops and some distortion.
Good Plus - a worn and scuffed copy. May have other defects separately stated. Plays well, but with noise, may require filtering.
All other defects (if any: Chips, cracks, scratches, lamination cracks, label damage, needle digs) will be stated SEPARATELY.
Paypal or money order.
