About this Item

First edition. Original 78 r.p.m., 12-inch record in original plain paper sleeve. Fine copy in slightly worn sleeve. Original audio recording, produced for the Poetry Room at Harvard College Library. The Harvard Vocarium label was developed by Frederick C. Packard Jr. in the early 1930s, in an effort to take advantage of the recent technology "to bring to life the voice of the poet." The label was a great success, producing over 100 records during its roughly 20 year history. By the time of its demise in the early 1950s other companies began to followed suit. The collection was fittingly among the first inductee to the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress. *Gallup* E5d.
