Description

I have up for auction a record (One Sided 12" 78) with a plain white label; vinyl material, thus later date. I have acquired a large, very interesting collection of similar items. Someone in the Victor company during the middle or second half of the 1900s pressed a large number of Victor original recordings (some even unpublished); they are not dubs, but first pressings from the Masters; thus as clean as possible. He often wrote the info on the top right of the white sleeves they are in; and sometimes even made copies of labels. This one is a pressing of a 1926 Recording by Dame Nellie Melba and John Brownlee with pianoforte by Harold Craxton (#Cc-9550-1; DM 987) "Traviata: Dite alla giovine"; recorded in Small Queens Hall, London. NOTE: This was her last recording, at age 65!!! The record is in excellent condition, of course, no wear and scuffs and scratches are very few (if any), light and surface variety. Surfaces still very shiny and clean. Thin and flexible vinyl type, thus unbreakable. White sleeve also has corresponding number at top right. I have pictures of trail off area also which has the numbers etched into it.
