Here is a little of what has been written about the history of using the phonograph in service:
1955 Watchtower July 1 pp. 394-395 Part 13: Champions of Freedom of Speech and of Worship
Results of the non-radio sound service were so promising that, in 1934, the Society began to produce another service instrument, a portable phonograph, and to manufacture a series of 4 1/2-minute 78-rpm discs containing effective Bible lectures. At first this portable phonograph was used largely in the back-call service, but finally it came to be very widely used in the initial-call house-to-house service, being played on the doorsteps of the homes. Here indeed was a new preaching medium. It figured in a big way at the 1937 Columbus (Ohio) convention attended by 25,000 on Sunday, September 18, to hear Judge Rutherford deliver his important lecture “Safety,” which at the same time was broadcast by 135 radio stations. At this convention the historic decision was announced, that the Society was voluntarily withdrawing from all commercial radio broadcasting contracts after October 31, 1937. Instead, all of Jehovah’s witnesses would concentrate their time and funds on the more effective house-to-house work, using the portable phonograph with a wide range of more than ninety Bible lectures that would enable millions to hear and learn Bible truth. The phonograph work took on new force, as is demonstrated by the report for 1938 showing that there were 430,000 discs with lectures in sixteen languages in use on 19,600 sound machines. In 1937 there were reported 10,368,569 listeners, and for 1938, 13,070,426. Truly a literal mighty shout was being raised among all earth’s inhabitants!

The Rutherford records seems to be in VERY NICE condition without any major scratching and should play well. The labels may have a former owners name on them. It comes with four plain brown sleeves and one decorative J. F. Rutherford protective sleeve!
