Re: Cortina Archives
Apparently, this is a cylinder from the original Cortina German course. I stumbled upon it on eBay: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/EARLY-CORTINA-CYLINDER-LANGUAGE-PHONOGRAPH-RECORD-BOX-German-No-21-/152606658395?hash=item238810cf5b:g:cF0AAOSw-K9ZGfImIngaræð wrote: ... Do you know which language it's for?
EDITED:
Title changed from "Cortina Resuscitated" to "Cortina Archives"

Most cylinders are now in such terrible condition that your best option is to scan them with a laser, as they might just disintegrate if you put a needle on them...

Re: Cortina Archives
One good reason to do that is that there may be old dialects represented which have been 'softened' nowadays. The same applies to other pioneer recording systems, like metalthreads, 78 rpm disks or ... well, let's just admit it: tape. Especially the old big rolls of brown tape which you had to place manually on the corresponding gadget. Lots of ethnographical investigations is only preserved on such quaint old media.
