NOTE: This listing is created for research and educational purposes only. I only own a small proportion of the phonograph records listed, and those I own are NOT FOR SALE. I also have no particular insight as to how to acquire them. With the information you have found here, search eBay, gemm.com, or post a question to 78-C. Otherwise, you'll need to spend hours over a period of time searching junk stores, garage sales, record auctions (both mail and internet), and anyplace else that may have 78rpm discs for sale.

This page based largely on the work of the Red Saunders Research Foundation. If you want to find out more (much more) about Aristocrat and other information about the Chicago recording scene in the 1940s and 1950s, you will find a visit there to be highly profitable.
