This is a two-sided 12" variable speed record made specifically for the rare Penny Phono record machines of the period. Both sides are the same.


Penny phono records were created in a specialized Hollywood Studio--the only coin operated phonograph manufacturer in the world making both the phonograph and the  records.  These were made for the Cinematone Penny Phono jukebox, by Cinematone. Only made in 1939-40 - and both the players and the records are very rare now.

The record is in E- condition, good gloss, some moisture patterns on shellac, some spindle marks on labels. Clean labels.

Also included is a sheet with a listing of the tracks and what is known about performers.
 

Record will be carefully packed with heavy cardboard box, bubble wrap, etc. and shipped via USPS with delivery tracking/confirmation.
