It's rare because it is very late in production, just before Edison quit the phono business, but cheap because it's not very interesting to listen to. True value probably lies somewhere between the two prices, so you did well.

B.A. Rolfe did have some great selections. I am a fan of B.A. Rolfe, he was a interesting person, he had been involved in motion pictures as well.
