Description
Up for bid is a 1940 Cinematone Studios Penny Phono record.
Details:
VS 1101 - Strip Polka VS 1102 - I've Got a Girl in Kalamazoo
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 notable because it is a higher number in the series - and has two different sides. Most of the penny phono records are one-sided, or have two sides with the same tracks.
The record is in V condition, with some gloss, lots of light scuffs and scratches, plays with some surface noise that does not overwhelm music. Some light wear to both labels, stain and pen mark on 1102.
Record will be carefully packed with heavy cardboard box, cardboard inners, bubble wrap, etc. and shipped via USPS with delivery tracking/confirmation.
