Welcome to The Vinyl Thread with Natalie and Alban Low. This week we have a potted history of the telephone (in vinyl form), from obscure areas codes of pre-WW2 London to the smartphone generation. Join us for 20 minutes of vinyl and shellac, we spin flea market finds and auction lots into a themed selection for you to enjoy.
