Thank you for visiting our website. We hope it provides you with an insight into the activities and aims of the Society. If you have an interest in Vintage Phonographs, Gramophones, Old Records, the history of recorded sound, or just a love of music, you should join our Society.

We hold
 meetings on a regular basis in London, and around the UK. In addition we hold an excellent weekend Conference in Malvern each October. Membership of The City of London Phonograph & Gramophone Society includes a subscription to the Society's quarterly journal For The Record published in March, June, September, December each year.  The journal includes articles of interest to collectors, advertisements, and reports on meetings, notification of forthcoming events and other items contributed by our members. Issues of For The Record are published in B5 format, with colour illustrations. The CLPGS from time to time also publishes a Membership Directory, which is distributed free to members.

The editor of For The Record invites the submission of articles, classified advertising, and other pertinent material suitable for publication. Letters to the editor are also always welcome. The views expressed in the journal represent the opinions of the authors and are not necessarily those of the editorial group.
