Description
Zarzuela Katiuska, complete works, Spanish Phonographic School, 20th century Shellac records in a publisher’s album. Dimensions: 29 x 31 x 4 cm. This set comprises nine gramophone records dedicated to the zarzuela ‘Katiuska’, preserved in an original album illustrated with photographic portraits of performers and composers associated with the musical production. The album features typographic and photographic design characteristic of the early decades of the 20th century, incorporating references to ‘Regal’ electric records and artists who were already prominent on the Spanish operatic scene. The record labels retain the classic iconography of the historic phonographic companies, including commercial emblems and original tax stamps, which enhance the set’s documentary and collector’s value. This item constitutes a valuable testament to the dissemination of zarzuela through domestic phonographic media, reflecting the rise of the Spanish music industry and the technological development of sound recording during the interwar period. The set stands out both for its musical and historical interest and for the graphic quality of its publisher’s presentation.
