This is a two-sided 12" variable speed record made specifically for the rare Penny Phono record machines of the period.
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.
This particular record is unique in that it is a later catalog number (actually two catalog numbers) and has two different sides. Earlier records were either one-sided, or two-sided with the same tracks on both sides.
1100 is in V+ condition, good gloss, a few light hairlines. Clean label except for pencil writing.
1099 is in V- condition, with some dulling, moisture stains and hairlines. Label has moisture damage.
Record will be carefully packed with heavy cardboard box, bubble wrap, etc. and shipped via USPS with delivery tracking/confirmation.
