Play that funky music, Mr Edison!


Another great find from the weekend's charity and vintage shopping session: I don't know much about these cylindrical records (bakelite? Some other kind of plastic?) but I know that I love the packaging - amazing swirly type, that picture of Edison looking smugtastic and the hand-labelled contents: 'True Love Waltz'. Bring on the true love, Mr. Edison!
