This is an authentic 10-inch 78 RPM shellac record featuring Harry C. Browne, released by the Columbia Graphophone Company in 1916. The disc contains the classic American folk song 'Old Dan Tucker' on one side, a tune famously associated with 19th-century minstrelsy and attributed to Dan Emmett. This pressing is part of the Columbia 'A' series (A1999) and features the iconic blue and gold 'Notes' label, which was standard for the era.
The recordings are performed as baritone solos with banjo and orchestra accompaniment, showcasing the popular acoustic recording style of the early 20th century. Harry C. Browne was a prominent recording artist of this period, known for his folk and minstrel repertoire. This item is a significant piece of early recorded sound history, reflecting the musical and cultural landscape of the United States during the pre-World War I era. Collectors of early Columbia pressings and acoustic 78s will appreciate the historical context and the specific label variations present on this release.
