2nd Package

Early 1920s dance/jazz era
The Happy Six has a collector following
Better than average Columbia dance records
Usually $20–60, sometimes more in excellent condition
Second Best

Vocalion A14681 – Bar Harbor Society Orchestra

Collectors often like the Vocalion label itself. Not rare, but more desirable than common Victor and Columbia dance records.

Running Collection Estimate

From everything you've shown from the Edison phonograph cabinet:

Common records: 100+ pieces likely
Better records identified so far: 15–25
Bulk estate-sale value: $250–500
Marketplace value: $500–900
eBay one-at-a-time value: $1,000–2,000+ if condition is good and you separate the better titles
Keep an Eye Out For

If you find any of these labels, stop and photograph them:

Okeh
Paramount
Gennett
Brunswick (especially jazz/blues)
Vocalion blues
Champion
Perfect
Cameo

Also photograph anything with:

Louis Armstrong
Bix Beiderbecke
King Oliver
Duke Ellington
Fletcher Henderson

Jimmie Rodgers
Carter Family

Those are the records that can jump from a $10 record to a $100–$1,000+ record. So far I haven't seen a major rarity, but I do see a solid collection of 1920s dance-band records that adds value to the phonograph
