ARTo Records

[CrackedWormgear]

Yesterday I attended a local annual flea market. Usually the first flea market of the season for me. Normally I never find anything phonograph related but this time it was definitely different. Discovered a box of records with a good batch of acoustic era ones. 
 

I’ve had ARTo Phone records before but never in mint condition including the sleeves. This is one of them.

 

Also found a good buy on a VV-VI Victrola. But I left that behind for someone else to discover. Also I already had reached my carrying capability!

That's a great find, especially with that original sleeve. I'd say getting a Billy Murray ARTo was a real bonus, since he was only freelancing for a brief window in 1919 or 1920.

 

I also don't find a lot of phonograph stuff in the wild anymore. Maybe I should start getting back out there...
