"Is Everybody Happy?"
Rare Ted Lewis Show 2 Transcription Disc set Available
Program 13 and 14, both parts.
Up for your consideration is a 2 Transcription Disc set of "The Ted Lewis Show",
a Chartoc-Colman Production, Chicago Illinois
Recorded and pressed by Columbia Recording Corporation,
a subsidiary of Columbia Broadcasting System, Inc.
Ted Lewis Show discs contain half of two consecutive programs, two discs complete two programs. This set contains part 1 of programs 13 and 14 on one disc and part 2 of programs 13 and 14 on the other disc.
The Transcription Discs are 16" in diameter and play at 33 1/3 RPM
Based on the design of the label and the content of the disc, we believe
this disc dates from 1947 or 1948. My research has led me to believe that the Ted Lewis Show was aired between 1947 and 1948. This is consistent with the time frame in which the musical note and microphone logo of CBS was in use. The Curator of the Ted Lewis Museum has confirmed the airing date of 1947.
The Ted Lewis Show is a lost treasure of old time radio. It is difficult to locate elsewhere and those few programs or copies found from extensive online searching are not for sale.
For condition information please see below and images:
The discs contain a few small lines or rubbings on the playing areas (cumulatively). When examined, we believe that these lines are not scratches. Both discs are a tad dusty. The labels are in very nice condition aside from some minor spotting/wear.
The paper sleeves are in very nice condition. There are some very slight tearing on both sleeves. One sleeve has a former owner's stamp and a notation specifying the content of the disc. Commercial records for consumers come with original (usually lithographic) sleeves. Transcription discs are not for consumers and therefore, they do not require nor are they sold with lithographic sleeves. So, we feel that the sleeve condition is a minor point in assessing this disc.
The disc was acquired from a public University,
which we are commissioned to sell for.

~These discs may not make "everybody happy" but if you are or someone close to you is a Ted Lewis fan, Transcription disc collector, or for some other reason would like this 2 disc set, I invite you to bid.~
With that said, good luck with your bidding.
