I noticed there is another "Holiday Greetings From The Bunch At Orange" currently for sale on eBay. The condition is rated V+ and is listed starting at $100. Seeing three records on eBay within such a short time span might give the false impression that they aren't so rare, but they are.

Yep I saved the image and enlarged & focused it better on my photoshop program and this copy shows a lot of scuffs and scratches so not sure how well it will sound. And I always wondered if these were really given only to Edison distributors / dealers in 1924 (?) how many distributors / dealers were out there in the USA and Canada and did Edison make any extra copies or just that amount ?? Just curious :? :?

Obviously Edison thought these were duds, since he marked the labels with a red star... :lol:
