Description

JAMES JOYCE reading

 

“Anna Livia Plurabelle”

from “Finnegan’s Wake”

 

The book was a work in progress when

this custom record was made by HMV in

London on September 9, 1929. 

It bears the matrix numbers

Cc 17594-2 and Cc 17595-2T1. 

 

The ledgers list Mr. C.K. Ogden of the

Linguaphone Institute as the client. It

was issued on the Orthological Institute

label, probably in early 1930, with a

10, Kings Parade address. This limited,

unnumbered edition was sold,

apparently exclusively, at Shakespeare

and Company, the Parisian bookstore

owned by Sylvia Beach. 

 

All other issues are

copied from this recording.

 

The two most recent Ebay sales were in 2014, where

one with a scratched side 2 sold for $ 63.00, and the

other, in 2012, in VG to VG+ condition, for $ 800.

 

This example is superior to either,

E+ on both sides, with no visible scratches.
