This is a unique acetate of this fantastic song
An acetate disc (also known as a lacquer, acetate test, dubplate, or transcription disc) is a type of gramophone record typically used for recording and broadcasting purposes from the 1930s through the late 1950s, and remains in limited use to this day
Acetate discs are used in the manufacture of vinyl records.
Unlike ordinary vinyl records, which are quickly formed from lumps of plastic through a mass-production molding process, an acetate disc is made using a recording lathe to cut a groove modulated with audio signals into the surface of a lacquer-coated dummy disc. A real-time operation that requires expensive, delicate equipment and expertise for requires good results.
The disc is then coated with metal which is then stripped to form a negative which is later electroplated and stripped to create a mother (positive copy) which is then re-plated and stripped to create negatives which are called punches, which are then used as molds in a platen press.
Still good condition
