The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Gang,

I had a chance to hear a very clean diamond disc record I just bought sung by Dale Wimbrow singing "Corn Fed and Chicken Fed". What a difference from the usual worn-out ones or played with a steel needle Diamond Discs that are so common.

I once found two electrically recorded B.A Rolfe Edison records in a milk crate in an antique store. They were priced very low and when I cleaned them with rubbing alcohol, they were nearly mint. When played, they astounded me with their fidelity. Edison records in excellent condition are hard to come by, because collectors don't want to let the good ones go. keep your eyes open and you might find more one day. Good hunting!
