Collectors, here is a special disc, Emerson 7 inch #7124, circa 1917.  The Edison Military Band plays the Mendelssohn Wedding March.  On the flip side, the Edison Symphony Orchestra plays MacDowell's familiar "To a Wild Rose". Very nice playing and arrangements, you will enjoy them.  The record plays well with fairly limited surface noise.  I am also including the pictured, rare Emerson record sleeve!!
Victor Emerson was a longtime executive at Columbia, and helped to introduce the Little Wonder 5 1/2" ten cent record in 1914.  He formed his own company in 1916, using mostly Columbia artists for his records.  The seven inch records sold for 25 cents; at this time Victor and Columbia sold ten inch records for 75 cents each.  Collectors enjoy the colorful Emerson labels, with stars and stripes and featuring the Statue of Liberty.  These were fairly successful but the Emerson company eventually produced 10 inch records when the record patents expired in 1919 and many companies started releasing records.  These are pretty hard to find and some sellers want a lot of money for these little collectibles.  I am placing several of them for sale at the same time, add them to your collection at my reasonable buy it now price!!
Shipping to USA addresses only.  $4.50 postage and handling fee, record will be carefully packed and shipped in a new box.  Please pay within 24 hours of purchase and I will leave you positive feedback when I ship the record, your positive feedback appreciated!!  See my store for other early 78s and thanks for looking!!
