Subject:        Recordings of Shakespearian Actors

How many surviving recordings exist of Sir Herbert Beerbolm Tree, Edwin
Booth, and Sir Henry Irving exist? Also, is the oldest surviving
recording of Shakespeare the 1890 recording of Edwin Booth reading
"Othello", or are there older ones out there?
