While at a flea market this past week I came across a dealer who had a 32 promotional record. It was about 3-4" across. Can someone tell me whats on the record and what value it might have if in "good" condition.

Which one? There are two of them.......a round record and a square record, and each is about 4" in diameter.

You'd need a 78 RPM player with a .003 stylus to play it. The tune you'd hear is "Happy Days Are Here Again" with an announcement promoting the new Chevrolet. On the playing side it says ADVANCE INFORMATION - THE GREAT AMERICAN VALUE FOR 1932. On the other side the label says BE SURE TO PLAY THIS RECORD TODAY and there is a drawing of a 1932 sedan. A couple of years ago I sent a taped copy to Bill Barker. Maybe we can get him to play it for us.

The one I saw was round.It looked in good shape but I don't have a player so I didn,t buy it.If it was going for ten bucks I probably would have,however the asking price was twentyfive.

The asking price of $25 was extremely reasonable! While there seems to be a lot of those records around their value is between $35 and $50 each. The large 10" dealer promo record for 1932 is very scarce and it will bring several hundred dollars.
