This listing
Many light needle marks and scuffs, only a couple felt with finger.  No cracks or warping.  About 4 chips taken from the very edge, not affecting the music (pictured).  Unfortunately I don't have the equipment to play-test.  Good luster.  Please see photos and ask any questions!

This is a 12" 78 rpm record.  Catalog numbers read No 127 and 153.

The label is indicative of the very first years for Baidaphon, circa 1907-1911.
Hopefully you know the artist featured on this disc.    Enjoy.

Update!  I've managed to get a little more information.   It seems the artist featured is a Lebanese singer named Farajallah Bayda.  (Or, Baida).
