Here a mystery to me. They are 7 inch in diameter. The possibilities I think are wax recording blanks for records or early dictation blanks
I compared them to Pathé Roneophone, but its not the same.
The spindle hole is large like a Standard disc
Any ideas to what kind of a recording device would be much appreciated.

Re: Recording blanks
Wow! They look cool and I hope you can record on them as I do not know what to record them with. Have you tried a standard gramophone?

Re: Recording blanks
A regular gramophone would not work for recording: you would need a feed screw to guide the cutter.Misetrgramophone wrote: Wed Jan 10, 2024 8:57 pm Wow! They look cool and I hope you can record on them as I do not know what to record them with. Have you tried a standard gramophone?

First, if we wanna know what this is, we first need to know what label produced this and then we need to know what machine it is for.
