Format: 10-inch, 78 RPM Shellac

The Tracks: This record features music from The Hollywood Revue of 1929, specifically recorded by legendary bandleader Sam Lanin & His Orchestra. Depending on the specific matrix stamping, it features early, foundational recordings of:
"Singin' in the Rain"
"Orange Blossom Time" / "You Were Meant for Me"
This is a highly sought-after artifact for antique phonograph and cinema history collectors. According to historical records and collector forums, it is believed that only about 500 copies of this specific 1032-P record were pressed and distributed to patrons of Loews Theatres at the original screenings. Because they were pressed out of fragile shellac in the late 1920s, finding one intact today—especially with its original black and gold or red/blue illustrated Loew's promotional sleeve—is extremely uncommon.
