Hi Joe,
These 20 inch discs were also sold in the United Kingdom and Australia.
I have seen a number in Australian collections including one of Harry Lauder.
Best Wishes

IIRC Kurt also offered some in an original wooden box made to hold a
bunch of them. He found them in France, their country of origin, and as
I understand, the only country they were sold in. They were not made to
be long play records. They rotate at 120 or so RPM. They were intended
for public playing, like outdoor parties or such. They were loud playing
records.
