"SWANEE BUTTERFLY" - Waring's Pennsylvanians, 1925 (Stars of the Silent Screen, 4/6)

[SuperLuckydream]

So very beautiful! Thank you, dear friend for your special gift of imaginative flight.

This record is technically special too because it was the first record released by Waring's Pennsylvanians to use a microphone. Date recorded was April 4, 1925.

@VTMCompany Thanks for the info! Very interesting!

I didn't realize this was an early electric.

Wow! A lot of care went into this music video. The 78 sounds just lovely... not too processed to be lifeless, but scratch- and click free nevertheless.

Your presentation shows an artistic hand as well. May I ask the name of the vintage font you used? Everything from the balance of type-to-frame to the subtle coloring makes this video a treat for the eyes as well as the ears!

@SpinBuldak

Thank you for your thoughtful and complimentary comment!

The fonts are two of my favorites: Parrish (based on lettering by Maxfield Parrish) and Windsor (an Arts & Crafts style font). I took the decorative frame from a Victor record sleeve from the 1920s.
