Edison and Victrola Advertising Thimbles.

Post by Dustie89 »

There were a couple of advertising thimbles on eBay a while back. One was for Edison and the other for Victrolas. If anyone saw them I was wondering if they had seen them before or if they may have been reproductions of dome type.

I've never seen an original phonographic advertising thimble, but plenty of reproductions.

I would say more like a "fantasy" item. Just like the glass vile's flooding Ebay. Pure junk.
