The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

John,

Famous was a short lived label from the 1921-24 period. According to Barr is was a client label of the New York Recording Laboratories. many of it's issues mirrored Paramount. NYRL did provide masters for Plaza during some of that time. Yours should date from early 1922.

That's a great one. I've never seen one before either. I hope you can provide a scan later for our Label Gallery. Also that's a beautiful machine, I look forward to seeing it restored.


Regards,
John

Hey John,

Thanks for the detailed info. I promise I'll scan the label when I'm able (I'm a poet and don't know it).

The Maggie will make a good winter project.
