I'm not exactly sure where to post this but my dad wanted me to ask if anyone knew how old it is and what it might be worth. Thanks for your help.

Not sure how old, but I do know that Ralph Errole Smith Founded America's "National" Opera...his daughter was also a famous opera star and not too long ago there was a huge to-do over her death .....

According to Les Docks catalog, the label is from the '20's. The one shown in my post goes for $75-$100. Yours isn't listed, so the above posted price is probably accurate,
One side note: The thick Edisons won't play on a standard Victrola and standard 78 rpm records won't play on an Edison player. They use different "technologies".
The key to any 78 rpm records are that they aren't chipped, cracked or warped. If they are dull, it's a sign of many playings. As most early players used steel needles(suppossedly replaced after only one use) each playing degraded the record more and more.
