FOUND - Book titled "Edison Disc Artists and Records 1910-1929"

Post by Polyphone »

Hi, Would anyone have a used copy of this Edison Diamond Disc discography for sale or trade? I would normally get this type of book via Interlibrary Loan but there is not a single copy in any library in Michigan. Condition is not important.....I just need the discographical information.

Edison Disc Artists and Records 1910-1929: Raymond Wile and Ronald Dethlefson, APM Press, 2nd Ed, 1990

Thanks,

Ken

DAHR now has a lot of information about the Edison discs. I don't know that it's 100%, but you might want to check it out, to see if it has what you need, before sinking money into the book--particuarly considering that the seller of the Amazon copy wants nearly $30 to ship it. Note that DAHR often has artist info and the like that will not be found in the printed volume. Incidentally, DAHR also has put on line a searchable .pdf copy of Girard & Barnes's Vertical Cut Cylinders and Discs.
