Phonograph Records And Books Auction - ONLINE ONLY
Lot 2090:
Description
An exceptional gathering of five early 20th-century Victor Records discography catalogs, dating from 1912 to 1919, featuring the iconic “His Master’s Voice” Nipper the dog trademark embossed on their paper and cloth-bound covers. Produced by the Victor Talking Machine Company of Camden, New Jersey—including a notable 1919 edition retailer-stamped for the Braydon & Chapman Music Store of Glens Falls, New York—these historical trade publications served as the definitive consumer guides for ordering 78 RPM shellac discs during the acoustic recording era. The items exhibit moderate, age-appropriate wear, including edge fraying, corner bumping, spine deterioration, surface rubbing, and minor cover fading, while the interior pages remain completely intact and legible. H 7.25″, W 5″, D 0.75″. Please see photos for condition. From the Allen Koenigsberg collection.
