8-inch 78rpm shellac records were introduced the late 1920s under labels such as Broadcast, Eclipse, Edison Bell Radio and Plaza.
These records had a slightly narrower groove and smaller centre labels, and were able to compress 3 minutes on a disc that was 20% smaller than standard 10-inch 78rpm records.
Edison Bells 8-inch disc market came in 1928 with the Edison Bell Radio label. These record cost 1/3d (about 6p). Almost all were recorded and made in Britain. It was a high-quality product aimed at the popular market, but the label was cancelled in 1932.
