Philips 78rpm records (non-Minigroove)

This page lists regular, non-Minigroove Philips 78rpm records, which are in my collection.

Notes:

  • The third column in the tables below refers to the 45rpm issue if it’s known to exist (the 45rpm issue features the Minigroove logo).

  • The land of origin for the 45rpm issue corresponds with the land of origin of the 78rpm issue (so a Dutch 45rpm issue is f.i. not listed for a French 78rpm issue).

  • The number used for a 45rpm issue is the same as the 78rpm issue, except that a ‘3’ is added as the first number. Since 45rpm singles and EP’s were released first in 1955, so some 45rpm issues are in fact reissues. From 1955 onwards both formats were issued concurrently.

  • The main 317 XXX series was followed by the 318 XXX series, but it seems there were only a few 78rpm issues for this latter category. They were probably released in 1958, the last year for the 78rpm record. The 319 XXX series is not the continuation of the 318 XXX series, but a separate one.

  • The last table below lists 12 inch 78rpm classical records, of which I have two. The third column in this table is called “Minigroove issue” for now, as I have to find out more about these issues. I’m not sure if the recordings made it to a Minigroove 45 or EP as well.
