Description

Here's a 16 inch transcription disc / record from the 1950s.  The title of this record is Guest Star which is a music program presented by the Treasury Department, U. S. Savings Bonds Division.  Artists are recorded in the studio with some patter between songs. Artists read U. S. Savings Bonds announcements.
This particular program features "Guest Stars"  Jack Webb in "The Sacrifice of Juan Pedillo" with John Conte and Harry Sosnik and the Savings Bonds Orchestra on program No. 419 and Nat King Cole with Del Sharbutt and Paul Weston and His Orchestra on program No. 420. 
These records were delivered to, and played on radio stations before the more common use of audio tape and consequently, were only played once. Record speed is 33 1/3 rpm.
You will need a record player capable of playing 16 inch records, commonly called "transcription records".
Please note, the photo used in the listing is just a generic photo, so you can see what the record looks like.

Thanks for looking!
