========================================
Nicole records were one of the very earliest disc records. They were
manufactured in Great Britain between August 1903 and March
1906, when the Company finally went out of business.
Their 7" and 10" records were cardboard based with a "celluloid"
playing surface, which can be a little noisy. Today they are very
scarce and it's unusual to find them with their surfaces intact!
