Description

Scarce 6-inch Emerson Talking Book 78 rpm record, "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" c. 1920 
This is a Henry Wadsworth Longfellow poem set to music, a tenor solo with orchestra accompaniment (announced by the singer).
Paper side is excellent as show, with only minor wear.

Nice E- to E condition and plays very well.  There is a stress crack that was difficult to photo.  Fortunately, the paper backing on the record strengthens it and therefore this stress crack cannot worsen or cause the record to break.  Playing the record, I am unable to hear a tick.
