..three Calibre self-recordings






During the 1950’s until the mid 1970’s you could find these do-it-yourself recording machines at UK holiday destinations and at main line railway stations. This one was photographed at London, Waterloo.



 
My three disks contain mystery recordings, which I believe were made on London Paddington station, of me and my mate Nick singing, and possibly blaspheming. 

After inserting your money, and making the recording, the machine delivered a single disk a few minutes later, the quality of which was nothing special.

Here is an example from YouTube:
