If this is in fact an original scroll label, it certainly has value if it in good shape, The green label is a 1940's reissue. Hoffman is right, although typically, many late 20's Victors have a high pitched squeal, something to do with the cutting ptocess, I suspect. At my age I can't really hear it anymore, but many insist it is there.

Jack,

Since you can no longer fully appreciate the sonic richness of your Victor 78s, I'll be stopping by to exchange some of my nifty LP or CD reissues for your no longer needed Victor 78s (think of the convenience)!

:rolleyes:

The Victor whistle issue was previously discussed in the following threads:

Ellington box

"Harsh Treble"
