Original 1950s Soviet Union made X-RAY roentgen film "roentgenizdat" record made of roentgen film.
It shows image of heart, backbone & ribs and also some stripes at the same image. Could it be just some roentgen equipment problem or processing defect? I don't know.
9 inch 78 rpm.
Recorder track is some instrumental jazz dance tune.
VG condition, there are some occasinal defects though the record plays good.
Records like
this were popular underground source for songs of prohibited but
extremely popular russian performers like Lescheko or Vertinsky,
underground criminal folklore songs, foreign jazz & pop music and
later rock'n'roll in Soviet Union. It was dangerous business, people get prisoned for manufacturing of them!
