radiola records

78 RPM records became popular during the jazz era of the 1920s, & remained popular right though the mid 20th Century, thanks in part to radio airplay. As recording technology evolved, transcription discs became the most common way of preserving live radio broadcasts. To fit the longer programs, large 16" diameter discs were used, providing better fidelity than 10" 78s. Syndicated programming then became possible.

By the late 1940s 16" transcription discs became obsolete. The 7" 45-RPM record was introduced, along with the 12" 33 1/3rd RPM LP (Long Playing) microgrooved vinyl record. Most of the LPs listed on this page are on the Radiola or Memorabilia record labels who specialize in original live radio programs of the 1930's, 1940's & 1950s. You'll find Crime shows; Comedy shows; Westerns; Personalities; Variety & more! All the Radiola Records listed here are 1st pressings, from Croton-on-Hudson, N.Y., made prior to their move to Sandy Hook CT.
