Edison DD "President of the Jobbers Retires"

Post by donniej »

A big thanks to Gary Howell for loaning the only known copy of DD matrix 7032, President of the Jobbers Retires. This is a recording from 1919 of Walter E. Kipp giving his retirement speech. It was given no label and no catalog number. There are likely no other surviving copies of this one. Reproductions will be available in the next several weeks.

That's great! Mark me down for a copy, if you're taking orders.

Thanks,

Thank you Don, just keep doing what you're doing. It's a great way to keep, and add interest in our hobby.
