SANTA CLAUS HIDES IN YOUR PHONOGRAPH ORIGINAL RECORDING EDISON DIAMOND DISC.


From 1922 by Humphrey, Harry E. This was the first time that the world heard what’s Santa Claus’s voice would of sounded like. This is the original recording of this! This song is also registered with the Library of Congress; Control Number 00694071. There are only a limited amount of different original recordings of this, and this record is one of them. Reverse side: Christmas cobwebs / Edna Baily.


This is one of the more unusual of Edison's records. Listen to Santa's sinister laugh he makes as he tries to sound fun loving and kind. This is an extremely rare record and in great condition and it has been tested. It has some surface scratches like any record does from that time. Please see pictures for details and descriptions, no refunds or returns. This is coming from my own collection and has been in a smoke free environment for over 10 years. This record is over 100 years old is in great condition for its age.
