Description
Up for sale is a vintage plated copper disc used in the record pressing process. These discs are typically recycled and destroyed after use, making them extremely rare to find. This one, in particular, is marked “AUDIODISC” at the center and has the markings “Kamakila” or “Kamakild”, “KC-102-B”, and 4-18-49 on the envelope (the writing is hard to read). The content of the disc is unknown, adding to its mystery and uniqueness.
- Size: The disc measures 11⅛ inches in diameter, a standard size used in the pressing process.
- Material: The disc appears to be silver-plated copper, with some patina developed over time, giving it a beautiful vintage look.
- Historical Significance: These pressing discs were used to create records and are typically recycled and destroyed after their pressing duty, so few survive. Owning one of these is a rare piece of music history.
- Condition: The disc shows some patina and light wear, but overall is in good condition given its age and rarity.
This is a truly unique collector’s item, perfect for vinyl enthusiasts, recording history buffs, or anyone looking to own a piece of record-pressing history.
