BBC RADIO TRANSCRIPTION ACETATE DISCS of KING GEORGE VI XMAS MESSAGE 1939

 Here is a rare set of six radio transcription discs of the King's Xmas Message to the Nation, tx 25/12/39 on the Home Service (now Radio 4). These are coarse groove acetates (aluminium discs with a thin nitrocellulose coating), dating from the pre-magnetic tape era, cut at 78rpm. They are approx 13 inches in diameter so are too large for a regular turntable - they can be played only on a 16 inch transcription turntable.
In the original tatty paper sleeves
disc condition is good for age, but I've not been able to play them to check them
SUPER RARE ITEM!
