Small Metal Voice Record

[ethandron]

I have one of the above, of my mums voice, dated 1937. I’ve found some information about it...poppy records...but nothing about how I could play it today to hear her voice. It had to use wooden needles which I obviously don’t have, nor do I have any kind of record player. I don’t want to send it off somewhere and was wondering if I could somehow get it to play.
Any ideas?

Have you looked to see if you have any local companies that could copy the record onto a more modern media?

There used to be a local place where we had all our cine films put on to dvd, but they’ve gone bust.

You would have to send the original unless you are near then I guess you could deliver it by hand:

Thank you both.
Trouble is, I’m very very reluctant to let it out of my sight posting it off somewhere :/
