This is an Edison cylindrical record from our collection of 37 different records. The standard system in which to play these records was decided on by Edison Records in the late 1880s. These records were introduced around 1890 and were as popular as disc records until the 1920s. These records were played on a Gramophone and played a single song each. This specific record plays the song Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Si, Do by Edward Meeker.

The Thunder Bay Museum acknowledges the original custodians of this land and pay our respect to the elders – past, present, and future – for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture, and the hopes of Indigenous Peoples. We would also like to recognize that the Thunder Bay Museum is on the traditional land of the Fort William First Nation signatory to the Robinson Superior Treaty of 1850, and to acknowledge the role of the Métis Settlement in the development of our community.
