"his master voice"
I have a set of 16 victrola records. The range from 1905- 1911. The set is in good condition except for the spine of the book, which is torn. Was wondering if there is any value to this collection?? Example of content: victrola# 74570,74436,89001,74570,35160-A,35304-B, 70046 ... And many more!!

Sadly probably not a lot. I have picked several hundred similar here and there within the last 2 years for anywhere from 25 cents to maybe $2.

No they aren't worth very much. There's a squajillion of those red seal discs still floating around.Parky wrote:I have a set of 16 victrola records. The range from 1905- 1911.

Yes! MUCH value! Play them, enjoy them, keep them, play them a lot more. That's the value in most old records.

Heartily agree. The real value is the pleasure they bring in listening to them.Edisone wrote:Yes! MUCH value! Play them, enjoy them, keep them, play them a lot more. That's the value in most old records.
