Collection Descriptive Notes | An American man introduces the lessons and reads the English tokens, which are rendered twice in Chinese by the native speaker--with pauses for the student to repeat. [Note: The Pronunciation Exercises were dubbed as a separate series (q.v.).] |
Collection Technical Notes | Phonograph records are the discs that were originally issued by the War Department. The set consists of 24 discs out of 25 (Disc No. 16--with the continuation of Unit VIII--is missing.). The names of the authors are supplied from the notes of N.A. McQuown. Note: The Pronunciation Exercises (1-30) have been digitized as a separate series (see: ID#1085). Special note: the lessons on the tape have been determined to be superior in sound quality to any that might be done today from the discs themselves on the DMA's turntable: i.e., the WAVE files are to be made from the tapes. The WAVE files are converted to MP3s. |
