The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Foreign language and ethnic recordings were represented on Edison Diamond Discs.
Does anyone know the title and number for the Swedish record (s).
Are they rare, I came across one yesterday and didn't buy it.
Thanks,

JAR

There are 16 discs in the 59000 Scandinavian series. These were released from 1918-1926. Not all titles are Swedish. There are Danish and Norwegian titles too, plus a couple of Finnish ones.

Rather than type out the titles and artists, I will refer you to to the Excel spreadsheet of Diamond Disc information found at truesoundtransfers.de.

IMHO, these are quite uncommon. The Blue Amberol cylinders of these titles seem to show up more than the Diamond Discs.
