Ever seen this 4"?

I think this is a 4" record... Anyone ever seen this?

I have not seen one before, but I am intrigued. Did you play it?

Here is what Discogs says about them:

"Label manufactured by the Warner Record Co., K.C. [Kansas City], Mo. during 1925-1926. It produced a type of flexible record invented by Jesse J. Warner (usually referred to as J.J. Warner) and released a few discs in a 300 series. The main activity of the company seems to have been making advertising records, private recordings and other non-commercial types of records.

A later iteration of this label shows the label name as The New Flexo [without Record] and this gives a manufacturing credit to Wabine Company K.C. Mo. (these were produced c.1927-1929). The company also produced records for the Unity School of Christianity (Record Department) on the Unity label in a 400 series."

Yes, it was a rather hot piece. Sounded acoustic but could have been lousy electric.

Here it is on another record (I also saw and listened to this one). They sounded about the same.
