[Phono-L] Triumph with Columbia horn?

2008-09-03 Thread Robert Plavzic
Disappointing when people destroy a good spear-tip horn! Reminds me of a wannabe robber who broke into a home and stole a few things including an older shotgun, which he then proceeded to cut down to a sawn-off-shotgun that he used in a bank robbery that netted him like $2500, his face on CCTV and

I'm familiar with the existence of the record label, what I'm not familiar with is the pressing of 7-inch diameter brown one-sided 78s. I've only seen them in the typical 10-inch size. Is this for some specialty phonograph or a toy maybe? BoehlandL at aol.com wrote: > Also: > > > >

I have a few of these brown Canadians, mostly 7" but a couple 10". I assumed they weren't all that uncommon up there. I don't know much about the Canadian discography of Berliner's company. One curiosity, however -- all the labels on mine are chocolate brown. - Original Message - Fr
