Everyone,

We have some "Voice Letter" recordings on 45 rpm album disks that we are 
attempting to find some background on. Some were recorded at USO Clubs, 
some at neighborhood giftshops, and other venues. Most are family members 
recording their message and it is then sent overseas or perhaps Stateside.

We're trying to find out when they were introduced, by whom, how widespread 
they were, etc. We've contacted a few music libraries to no avail.

We're greatly appreciate any assistance in pointing us to resources.

Many thanks,

Joan E. Denman
