KLINGSOR
1907 - 1914
Klingsor Record was a German record label established in 1907 by Heinrich Klenk in Hanau, Germany.
The label was known for its unique gramophones, which featured an "Aeolian Harp"—strings stretched across the horn's mouth to enhance sound quality. These gramophones were manufactured by Polyphon Musikwerke AG in Leipzig. Klingsor records appeared in the UK around 1910, but by late 1911, Polyphon opened its own branch in London, effectively absorbing Klingsor back into Polyphon.
The label ceased operations in 1914.
