Not much steel to start with, and I havn't looked completely, but this should be great overall http://www.loc.gov/jukebox/search/results?q=steel%5C%20guitar

I looked at the site yesterday. It seems to be all from 1925 and earlier----the complete Sony catalog from that era. Country, pop, ethnic, etc.

I found a couple of dozen Hawaiian tunes from around 1913 with one particular steeler--Walter Kolomoku or a similar name. Early versions of Hapa Haole Hula Girl, etc. Sound volume was low, quality fair, which I guess is about all you could expect.

I'm hoping this is just the first baby steps.

Hopefully they will get up into the 30s recordings, with early electric instruments.
