Fonotipia two sizes

[Neilvanstem]

I showed my few Columbia etched labels with gold paint. Now these seven Fonotipia I have. One is about 11 1/2 and the other six are about 10 3/4 in diameter. Now I assume these are from 1908-1911 period looking into The American Record Labels and Companies book by Sutton and Nauck. They

surely have the feel of older records and the look too. I prize these as I have never found more though see them at auctions but I do not want to pay much so don't bid! Almost all have the signatures etched in the run off area but almost all are mostly covered by the labels. They are in great shape and sound wonderful and I hope you don't mind me showing all seven to you. Any information is always appreciated. Thanks Neil

Those are nifty Neil. Thanks for showing them. I have several but I rarely play them.
