THIS RECORD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH VIRTUALLY NO WEAR OR SCRATCHES. THE LABEL IS ALSO VERY NICE. THE SONGS ARE "CARRY ME BACK TO OLD VIRGINNY" BY THE PEERLESS QUARTET AND "LITTLE GRAY HOME IN THE WEST" BY IDA HEYDT. THE SLEEVE IS IN VERY ROUGH SHAPE, LOTS OF TEARS AND WRINKLES AROUND THE EDGES. THE CENTER LABEL IS MORE OF A DARKER MAROON THAN WHAT THE PICTURES SHOW <<< TERMS>>>

Meteor was a label started by the Meteor Motor Car Company of
Piqua, Ohio when the major phonograph patents started to expire and
everyone wanted to have their own line of machines and records. A maker
of hearses and ambulances, Meteor Motor couldn't have been a more
unlikely candidate to join this boom but started making phonographs in
1917. It followed up with a record label that leased all its material
from other small labels that had their own recording studios like Arto,
Lyric and Clarion. There were only a handful of releases in its catalog
and it survived just a year or so. The physical paper label itself
though features an interesting innovation that was soon forgotten, a
listing of the reverse selection at the top so the user wouldn't have to
actually flip the disc over to see what it was. THIS INFORMATION IS FROM THE WEB SITE OF CENTURYOLDSOUNDS
