Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nipper (1884–1895) was a dog that served as the model for a painting titled His Late Master's Voice that later became identified with a number of audio recording and associated brands: His Master's Voice, HMV, RCA, Victor, RCA Victor and JVC. Nipper was born in 1884 in Bristol, England, and died in September 1895. It has been claimed in various sources that he was a Jack Russell Terrier, a Fox Terrier, a Dalmatian, or an American Pit Bull Terrier. He was named Nipper because he tried to bite visitors in the leg. Nipper’s original owner, Mark Henry Barraud, died in 1887, leaving his brothers Philip and Francis to care for the dog. Nipper himself died in 1895 and was buried in Kingston upon Thames in a small park surrounded by magnolia trees. As time progressed the area was built upon, a branch of Lloyds TSB now occupies the site. On the wall of the bank, just inside the entrance, a brass plaque is displayed commemorating the famous terrier that lies beneath the building.
