The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I bought an Edison triumph a few years ago, and it had a large manually typed listing of all of the Edison cylinder records with it.

There are 22 total documents. The first one is titled:

The Complete Catalogue of the Edison Blue Amberol Records containing all United States Issues from October 1912 onwards. Volume I; Serial Numbers 1501 to 3750 inclusive in numerical order.

Compiled by
Sydney H. Carter
Abbotts Close. Worthing, England
1963

Some of the volumes indicate "with collaboration of Major H.H. Annand; Hillingdon, Middlesex


Does anyone have any informatio about what these are or about the people who compiled this listing. As I said, they are all manually typed on a typewriter and literally every cylinder record is listed among these volumes.

Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

There's a much better complete and sortable version available here on an excel spreadsheet in the archives.

I've got that one too in hard copy. Not at all user friendly.
