7" Peerless #3031

Alexander, sung by Bob Roberts

All you label collectors should pay attention to this one.  The Peerless appears to be one of Columbia's earliest client labels.  Made for the W.S. Simpson Co, 7 Warren Street, New York about 1904, the label is extremely rare today.  This example has a good label, but the record itself suffers from several pits, needle runs and scored grooves.  On first glance, the surface looks good, but it may skip or mistrack during playback.  A small rim chip does not come close to the grooves.  Considering the aural defects, I'll grade this one a 5 on a scale of 10, although it really looks much better.  But it may be a long time before either of us sees another example.
