Re: [Phono-L] Looking for Mother Goose records
Thanks SO much, Harvey, for letting me know about this. Luckily (given the price) the records I'm looking for weren't produced by Talking Book. These were Columbia's, just with a different label. So the pursuit continues! -Original Message- From: phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org [mailto:phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org] On Behalf Of harvey kravitz Sent: Monday, December 06, 2010 10:22 PM To: Antique Phonograph List Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Looking for Mother Goose records Merle, Go to Ruby Lane and there is a Mother Goose book. Look under phonographs. The price is steep, $275. for it. Harvey Kravitz ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
Re: [Phono-L] Looking for Mother Goose records
Merle, I never saw records like this before. Were they made the same era as Bubble Books? Are they scare and rare? I didn't know Columbia made these.

The records are the same size as Little Wonders, and have a black paper label. The original Little Wonder matrix numbers were used, and I know about two of them -- 464-B is Little Wonder #943 and 464-C is Little Wonder #814. I'm assuming that there is a 464-A but don't know what it is, and there might be a 464-D (and E, etc.) or some other number than 464. These records were originally sold in a box, which you can see on the left-hand side of this page, about three-quarters of the way down (along with a photo of the record itself). http://www.littlewonderrecords.com/little-wonder-history.html If anyone has any additional information about these, I'd be much obliged -- and if you have any you'd be willing to part with, so much the better.
