Kudos to Al Girard for the Historic Radio Find…

Filed under: Old-Time Radio — Charlie Summers @ 12:18 am

Al posted to the OTR Digest:

I’ve been given access to a collection of ETs that appear to number about 400 disks. I’ve begun photographing the labels so that I can catalog the collection with the initial goal of locating anything that is not now in circulation. The collection is in the library of CKUA. I’ve also located another collection locally that has, I’ve been told, at least 200 disks, and I’ve been in contact with the owner.

He was kind enough to supply some photos; on the left, only a few of the many transcrtiption discs in the discovery. In the table below, a selection of the disc lables - check out the “Hear it Now” and “Fibber McGee and Molly” shows among the hundreds of discs.

Who knows what long-lost delights are sitting in those boxes? Kudos, Al!
