Gioachino Rossini, *The Barber of Seville*, Complete Opera Collection: 17 78-RPM Gramophone Records

A vintage album binder made of textured burgundy canvas, designed to hold 78-rpm shellac records. The front cover features several inscriptions embossed in gold. The name of the composer, G. ROSSINI, appears in the upper right corner. In the center of the album is the main title, *IL BARBIERE DI SIVIGLIA*, followed by the description *OPERA COMPLETA IN 17 DISCHI* and the trademark *GRAMMOFONO* in quotation marks. A central garland-style decoration frames the famous registered trademark depicting the dog Nipper in front of a gramophone, complete with the phrase “La Voce del Padrone” visible beneath the instrument’s horn. The binding consists of rigid, fabric-covered boards with a reinforced spine. There are no rulers or graduated scales visible in the image to determine the physical dimensions of the object.
