Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is not a book but a 10-inch, 78 rpm, heavy shellac record, Victor Orthophonic Recording 22079, in very-good-plus condition. Released in both a silent and a talkie version, the 1929 film "The Trespasser" (produced by Joseph P. Kennedy!) was a hit for Swanson, garnerin…g her an Academy Award nomination, but unfortunately her only really successful talkie till "Sunset Boulevard" (1950.) RCA purchased the Victor Talking Machine Co. from Eldridge Johnson for a reputed $40 million in 1929 (Johnson put his profits into book and manuscript collecting, bless him), and records bearing the designation "Radio-victor Corporation of America" (later RCA Victor) appeared for only a limited time. The "VE" on the label stands for "Victor electrical" recording, which replaced acoustic recording in 1925. Reduced from $25.
