Hello Shawn, I believe you are talking about the early ones made in 1901 in the 7000 range. I have a NOS one it its original 1901 box, the record and the box both look new, unfortunately the record is cracked. From what I have read Edison began to mold records in 1901 and stocked up for

I forgot to add you can tell when the record was made from the box if you are fortunate to have the original one. As most people know some records started out as brown and can be found in all record variations if they remained in the catalog long enough. The early ones with no titles do

I'm hoping that someone on the list might have some info on Victor Puzzle Records. I picked one up the other day titled: The Conundrum - What Should I Play Next?. Anyone know how many of these were made or how scarce they might be? I have only seen two of these - the one that I bought and

There seems to be lot of conjecture about exactly how many of those records that Victor made. I always hear of the Conundrum, but never have seen/heard it. I have the Puzzle Record, which has three starts on each of two sides. It's a 10 inch. Rust's Victor Master Book tells thyat some (not all) of
