Edison Chinese Catalog

[chuckmoy]

Good morning from Beijing.

Here is a PDF of Edison's Chinese Catalog. I do not have a copy of Edison's Chinese Amberol catalog. I'm hoping to find it as well.

Bootlegs of these records also exist, I have found pictures of them online.-
I found another catalog here, https://cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/history-chinese.php, but it is missing the final page.

This catalog has the missing 3rd page most scans omit.
Does anyone on this forum have Chinese Cylinders?

We have a few of these at i78s, plus a mystery 4m Amberol:

Charles. Here's a picture of a 4m Chinese Amberol. I have only found this one photo ever. The mystery 4m Amberol might be 8278.

Chuck, do you think this is the same as the linked? It's only a 1 number difference.

[Charles Batchelor]

The mystery 4m Amberol is one number off -- 8277.
We know the catalog number, we just don't know the title or performer.

Charles.

Do you have a photo of 8277?

Thank you.
