and collector Bill Dean-Myatt, who notes that this 7 inch record was
recorded in London on February 19, 1901.
The wording reads: ‘E.
Berliner’s Gramophone / Covered by English and
Continental Patents / Talk. / A political meeting. / Spoken by
Burt Shepard / and Brass Quartet / London.’

engraved pre-paper label image shows a conscious design
arrangement.
The label name occupies a tight block of
lettering and large-scale handwritten script is used for the
title.
