Amazing coolness.

A recording of Take Me Out to the Ball Game as performed by Edward Meeker.

What so cool about it? The recording company is Edison's National Phonograph Company, and this recording off a wax cylinder made the same year as the song was written - 1908.

Have a listen!

Heh. That was fun.

You realize, it won't be that long (in the grand scheme of things) before people start making the same comments about vinyl... and then CDs...

Where the heck did you get that icon? I want one in that style, but can't seem to find the site that does 'em. Or do people just use their own artistic skills?
