Hi Simona,
 
Are you aware of the myriads of of master recordings made by the Ministry Of Propaganda of the Facist period?  They're at our U.S. National Archives.  The recordings' contents are not limited to political propaganda.  They include subjects pertaining to Italian culture, history, et. al.  The holdings include postive and negative metal parts.  The sleeves are meticulously annotated with technical information.
One gem is Marconi speaking in 1932 about his early work in radio.
 
Best Regards,
Art Shifrin
