Description

This is an Edison disc record No. 51438 Battleship Kate by Wilbur Sweatman's Brownies one of the few African American bands recorded by Edison.  The other side is the Georgia Melodians doing My Mammy's Blues.
I'm selling a number of Edison discs over the next few weeks, including a number of 52,000 electrics, hot jazz, blues, and even a couple of "race records" which are very rare on Edison.
I'm happy to hold purchases and combine shipping.
