French website with manuals and catalogues etc

Post by nostalgia »

I found this French website some days ago. I don't know if it has been listed before,
but could not find it under "Search". I don't speak French myself, but the linked page here
has 200 links to gramophone catalogues and manuals etc.

Fascinating! Thanks a lot.
There are some gramophone catalogues from Spain. Until 1915, our country was served by Cie Française del Gramophone, with a sales agency in Barcelona, maybe also a pressing plant (I believe Brian Rust told that in the Spanish HMV catalogue, since 1908). In 1915 a Spanish proper company was created, with offices and factory in Barcelona, named Compañía del Gramófono.
