Incredibly rare 78 recording on Shellac.


James Joyce reads “ Anna Livia Plurabelle” parts 1 and 2.


The label is The Orthological Institute based at 10, King’s Parade in Cambridge.


Made in England by the Gramophone Co, Ltd, Hayes, Middlesex.


I believe this was recorded as a limited release in 1929.


The vinyl looks like it has never been played and is still shiny with no marks or scratches.

The cover is a plain white cardboard sleeve which has been added at a later date.


This really is a piece of history and very hard to find, especially in this near mint condition.


I will post to the U.K and Ireland.
