1970s HOHNER HARMONICA DEMO RECORD FOR CHICAGO RADIO STATION FOR SALE

[AJWINDMEYER]

HERE IS A RECORD FROM MY COLLECTION THAT WILL BE FOR SALE AT SPAH THIS YEAR. SORRY ABOUT POOR QUALITY, MY 1953 GARRAID RECORD PLAYER NEEDS WORK (A LOT OF WORK) AND THE RECORD SOUNDS BETTER THAN WHAT YOU HEAR. WHAT WE HAVE TODAY IS A 1971-1972 HOHNER RADIO AD. I HAVE LITTLE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS RECORD. I CALLED SEVERAL RESPECTED HOHNER OFFICIALS AND COLLECTORS AND FOUND OUT LITTLE.

IF ANYONE HAS ANY INFO ON THIS RECORD PLEASE TELL ME.  ANYONE INTERESTED IN IT? GIVE ME A EMAIL SOMETIME! I HAVE 1000S OF RECORDS AND THEY KINDA NEED TO GO. THIS ONE IS TRULY UNIQUE, AND ONE OF A KIND.

until the mid70s it was very common for commercials from agencies to be delivered to radio stations on what they called e-p's.  By the late 60s most radio stations had started playing their commercials on carts and advertising agencies sent their commercials to the stations on reel to reel tape.   An agency could put many ads on one album and have a seasons worth of campaigns at the ready.  I don't doubt that the folks at hohner would'nt have a clue about a generic spot from that many years ago.  Unless hohner had an in-house agency they probably had little knowledge of the Comercial.
These are quit comman among radio flakes.
