| Better-known for their Cylindrical records, Clarion only produced disc records for a short time. The first series were vertical-cut (aka hill-and-dale or phono) and date from 1908, using a 1000 series catalogue of about 30 discs. Four years later, they tried again with standard groove discs which were available until 1918, the series starting at 101 and nearly reaching 200. |
