This is part of a 4 record album set I found called 'Philco, Famous for Quality the World Over'. There are 8 sides, Each devoted to a specific model of Philco. Assuming this was to be played in store for a potential buyer to demonstrate its features. It is spoken in first person, by the Machine, saying things such as "Go ahead...Push my button". This example is for Model 1276, and is record Philco Demonstration Record # 77723. The edges of all four records have chips, and one is badly cracked but still playable. Despite the very clean appearance of the records, There is alot of hiss on this one. The set covers model numbers:1401125312831284128612 012741276(By the way, a google search revealed The 1401 as the most beautiful player ive ever seen. )If you own any of these models and would like one uploaded, please send me a request. Oh, this is being played on a 1956 Philco, which decided to malfunction for the first time ever...dropping its arm in the wrong spot upon completion :(

FM in 1948 must have been mostly unheard of. I like how AM is referred to as the "standard brand". Nice unit there.

I had an uncle who worked for Philco, I got a 78 from him with Bing Crosby singing "Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams". It's a blooper recording, he screwed up the lyrics. I have a Philco stereo component that needs an original phono attachment. I think its from the Ford Motor Company era.

Great comment! I, too, have really began to fall for the old Philco's..even though I only have two right now, and the other is in bad bad shape. I passed on these records the first time I found them, but I finally had to go back and get them about 6 weeks later. Glad I did.

I thought I had replied to this. Hmm. Anyway, Thanks for pointing out my rediculous mistake! I have since changed it.

This is unthinkable of the place where I live. America always develope such effective promotional strategies for everything it manufactured.I'm beginning to like these vintage Philcos so much now. Not to mention the extraterrestrial experience of getting to hear such rarity as a demonstration record.Great gift to all record and record changers collectors everywhere !

Ive got 7 more, Many similar with the key words replaced (model numbers etc). But I would love to eventually upload the whole set, especially those that are very fragile or showing cracks. This may be their final spin, and Id sure like to have it captured on film before they go. Not sure when, But Ill try to get some uploaded and will let you know when I do.
