WANTED- Edison DD version of My Gal Sal

Post by Caldog »

Hello, I am looking for a copy of the Edison diamond disc entitled My Gal Sal. I would like it to be a relatively neat copy, I would like it to be in good shape. A few chips would be OK, unless they go into the recording.
Thank you ahead of time,
Cal

A copy sold on eBay a month ago for $170. Yikes! I think I'll hold on to mine.

Here's a bit of interesting trivia: the reverse side of that record is "Girl Of My Dreams" with a vocal by Theo Alban. About that time he also sang that very same song on another Edison recording, accompanied by Henrietta Kamern playing a pipe organ. Not too many Edison organ records had vocals - in fact I can't think of another. I have that version on both cylinder and Diamond Disc. It has incredible fidelity.
