Aluminum Record on eBay

Post by Curt A »

Speak-O-Phone Aluminum Record on eBay. Is this one of those "record it yourself" records?

Yes it is. I have a few that were recorded by an early radio station. I finally discovered that I could get them to play using a thorn needle. Some of the ones I have must have been used like those transcription records as they say the name of the radio station.
