1900 IMPROVED Record one sided 7”

Strike Up the Band

 UPDATE:

Record plays all the way

With NO skips or repeating!

See description below

for more details.

A friend played this record on his restored Victrola.  He wiped the record clean with a microfiber towel and used a new needle on his Victrola.  Looking at the condition of this 120 year old record, he was surprised that the record’s sound quality was as good as it was. He played it all the way through once. There were no skips and it didn’t get stuck on the same lyric (groove).  Of course there were wear sounds throughout the record but it was even.   

I hated to end the original listing but I always present complete descriptions. If this record had flaws or would not play I would have updated it for those reasons also. I did not know of a way to test the record until a friend told me after the auction started that he had a Victrola. 

I regret if this caused anyone a problem. I lowered the starting price $20 and now am offering FREE shipping.  

Label:

IMPROVED RECORD

Manufactured exclusively by Eldridge R. Johnson, Camden, N.J.

STRIKE UP the BAND 

Picolo solo by Dan. W. Quinn (fast tempo)

A-9

(If this number is sequential in releases, this is an extremely low number)

 Note: “A9” is also inscribed on the record above the label at the end of the grooves.

Lightly inscribed on the right side of the label is what appears to be “10/29/00” which I assume is October 29, 1900.
