Seller's Description
United Talking Machine Co, Chicago, Ill, c.1908-1916, was a strictly mail-order phonograph company that sold phonographs with an oversized spindle, a little over 1-3/8" diameter. The only records you could play on them were, incidentally, sold by this same company via mail-order. They didn't actually make their own records, either. United bought unused pressings from Columbia Records, punched a bigger hole and pasted their label over Columbia's. That being said, they are laterally cut so you can play them on a regular 78 rpm turntable if you get them centered.
This 1912 recording features Arthur Collins and Byron Harlan.
Well worn. No gloss remains. Numerous scuffs and scratches. Lots of hiss and pop, but the needle holds the track. Side19912 features the duet of "Oh! You Circus Day". Side 19882 lists a Collins solo, "My Sumurun Girl".
