Edison Diamond Disc Vintage Label Tee

Thomas Edison bet the farm on his Diamond Discs in 1912: ¼‑inch‑thick bakelite platters cut vertically at a weird 80 RPM that demanded a proprietary phonograph with a hefty sapphire stylus. They sounded gorgeous—but weighed a ton and cost twice as much as flat Victors. By 1929 the experiment fizzled, yet the Art Nouveau label with its candle‑lit bust still hypnotises shellac hunters at estate sales.
