VMI/Victor Publishing, and The Victor Sound Foundation are proud to present 'The Rise, Fall, & Resurrection of an EMPIRE of SOUND'! The 92-page, hardcover, timeline publication features the never before told story of how the Victor Talking Machine Co., Camden, New Jersey, and a little dog, all helped develop, and dominate the modern music and home entertainment industry - and how that legacy continues, and continues to affect, the lives of every music loving person on earth in the modern age!
Never before seen photos, never before told stories, and an easy to follow full-color timeline of the events that bring us from the invention of the disk record and record player in 1887, to the RADIO, to the development of the Victrola® 45 RPM record and player, to RCA-Victor's development of Television, to the near collapse of the music industry and its rebirth in the modern era - you'll be blown away by how sprawling EMPIRE of SOUND is - and just how much noise one little dog can make!
