Bravo Steve:
Yes, there was a company that made paper discs for advertisers and
promoters...Including one of the motor car Lincoln's running engine, made
for the Ford Museum. I suspect that's preserved. I had a number of these
also, and found them fascinating.
1. I have a transfer of such a paper disc with Beverly Sills singing Christmas carols for Fortnam and Putnam - 1955. I posted it at my WWW site as the holiday offering several years ago.
2. I check on the Red Cross centenary recording of 1981. A friend has it as an LP and it is now available (terms unknown) from headquarters on CD.
