[78-L] Talk-O-Phone Record

[Michael Biel]

The 60 RPM you estimate for this 1904 disc is not out of line.  The
large 14-inch discs Victor and Columbia had just issued ran at 60 RPM. 
This is a 9-inch disc and I don't know of any other discs at that speed.

I posted a video of this record playing with the attached sound file
digitally adjusted to the right speed on YouTube channel CDBPDX:
