Does anyone here know whether there's an online resource for a complete list of Phonolamp issues?
I own only one example, 1002. Searching popsike, I only see four others: 1000, 1006, 1007 and 1012. I believe they are all Grey Gull matrices issued in 1921.

Re: Phonolamp Records
Along with my Phonolamp, I have Phonolamp 1000, 1004, and 1012. I too would love to see a complete list of catalog numbers for these records.
I'm still looking for a Phonolamp sleeve --- anyone?!?!?

"According tom Brian Rust's The American Record Label Book, Phonolamp issued less than a dozen recordings. The records were not sold but included with a Phonolamp purchase. Grey Gull was the source of these rare discs."

You may want to contact the Historical Society of the Tonawandas, they have a sales brochure. It may have a list?

Re: Phonolamp Records
It seems almost possible that you both together make the list... just some missing numbers...
Another possibility is to look in the sales catalogue of Sears and the like.. someone that could have sold the phonolamp

Re: Phonolamp Records
Did Endlessgraph make any for Fairy Phonograph Lamps?

Re: Phonolamp Records
Thanks, gentlemen, for the information. Perhaps 1012 is the final issue. If so, it seems that we have about half of them documented here.
Pathé Logical, what are the orchestras / titles on 1004?

Re: Phonolamp Records
Hi vintagetenor,
Here are pics of the labels of my Phonolamp records (1000, 1004, and 1012) and pics of 1009 (courtesy of "King Bee" on Facebook).
Hopefully others will post clear pics of others!

Re: Phonolamp Records
Thanks, Pathé Logical! This is great. I now have nine documented. Five contain dance arrangements and four are vocal recordings. It seems that the Phonolamp folks were careful to offer a good representation of each type.
I haven't yet found anything on numbers 1003, 1005 and 1008. Nor have I seen any number above 1012.

Re: Phonolamp Records
Did anyone make records branded for the Fairy Phono Lamp?
