  Hi Simona,
   
  Are you aware of the myriads of of master 
  recordings made by the Ministry Of Propaganda of the Facist period?  
  They're at our U.S. National Archives.  The recordings' contents are not 
  limited to political propaganda.  They include subjects pertaining to 
  Italian culture, history, et. al.  The holdings include postive and 
  negative metal parts.  The sleeves are meticulously annotated with 
  technical information.
  One gem is Marconi speaking in 1932 about his 
  early work in radio.
   
  Best Regards,
  Art Shifrin
