Design: Translated into English, the label name would be 'Eagle Record.' The crowned eagle, with outstretched wings, sitting on top of the world (and featuring the American continent) symbolizes power; whether it relates to European monarchies, where this image was also used widely, is unknown.
History: Winner of the first prize at a national exposition of industry in 1910, according to the small print on the label. Collector and music researcher Daniel Beller, who was born in Argentina but who now lives in Israel, supplied this image. He notes: "The 'Marcha Arjentina' is a misprint."
