Emile Berliner and the Birth of the Recording Industry

[novkev24]

Below is a link to The Library of Congress Emile Berliner archive. This site contains a selection of more than 400 items from the Emile Berliner Papers and 108 Berliner sound recordings from the Library of Congress's Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division.

Here is link to the site: http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/berlhtml/berlhome.html

I downloaded about 8200 images, but that includes 2 or 3 sizes of many, so there are around 2500 unique items. Also quite a few Berliner disc records - and one home movie from 1903 or 1904!

That was a great site. I never saw so much about Berliner. I really learned a lot about him.

I've just spent a few hours going through that site. Thanks for letting us know - it's fantastic.
