I noticed there have been a few posting about historical recordings this 
month.Well I just found a most usual record.It is a 12" one-sided HMV titled 
"Gas Shell Bombardment".I have done some research and found that it is the only 
true battlefield recording of the great war.Also,it was Will Gaisberg (Fred's 
brother)that did the on site recording.He accidently inhaled gas while doing 
this and as a result died a few weeks later.The great war ended two months 
later.If anyone as one of these records as well maybe they could give me an 
idea of it's value and rarity .
