Colombia catalogue - help!

Post by phonosandradios »

So time ago someone generously posted a scan of a UK columbia catalogue of machines and I spent some time yesterday looking for it both manually and using the search facility of the forum but without success. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction of where it is.
I am interested in all forms of audio media including: gramophones, phonographs, wire recorders, the tefifon, reel to reel tapes, radiograms and radios.

Roger (epigramophone), generously posted this scanned catalogue on the forum: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=43053
I think Soundgen also have posted another Columbia catalogue on the forum in the past, but I don't have that link right now, if it still exist in here...

Thanks for that - I did a search for columbia catalogue so I am surprised I couldn't find it but it is longer ago that I thought and I don't think I went back through the list of results far enough.. Now book marked for future reference :)

Thanks for posting this Julien... This is a great source of information, with many different catalogs, photographs, etc. Absolute tons of interesting articles, reference material and on and on...
Click "Accueil" on the upper left and then choose "English", if that is your preference...
