The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I picked this up at a sale recently. When I opened the frame up, I found it to be an original and complete example of the 1878 sheet music for "The Song of Mister Phonograph." I somehow had not been aware of this song. Here it is on cylinder:

Thanks for sharing this song.

I always thought that "Mister Phonograph" could have been a distant relation of Bibendum. Both of which I find slightly creepy!
