The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

For sale today is an original Phonograph Concert Poster. Around the turn-of-the-century, exhibitions of the phonograph were all the rage. Most people at that point did not have a phonograph of their own in their parlor. To hear the latest music, they would pay to attend a concert. To announce a phonograph exhibition, posters would be put up around the town.

This guaranteed original poster is one that would have been used to advertise a phonograph exhibition. It measures approximately 12 inches tall by 9 inches wide. It has excellent graphics and is unused - the date, time, etc has not been filled in.

I was fortunate enough to obtain a few of these posters. They are somewhat fragile but this last one is in extraordinary condition. These look awesome framed and displayed near your favorite phonograph.

The price is $25.00. Shipping is additional. No PayPal, but checks are fine.
