1925 was the year Columbia switched from the old method of acoustically recorded pressings to the new electric recording process licensed from Western Electric. This company has a long history, dating back to 1888, and was one of the "Big Three" in recording companies, competing with Edison and Victor. They remain the oldest continually used brand name in recorded sound, now owned by Sony Music since 1988.

Offered here is a 1930's, 10 inch, Art Hickman's Orchestra recording.

Overall, this record is clean, and sounds pretty good, but some background hiss and minimal scratches are to be expected, and both sides show a decent remaining shine. No chips, skips or cracks.

Side 78666 presents a one-step dance, "Fee Fi Fo Fum". Side 78668 offers a fox trot, "Dancing Honeymoon".
