Surplus 78 RPM Records
By Damon Atchison

I have many times my own weight in 78, 33, and 45 records in my basement.
I cannot throw anything away.  I think my conservation habits are due
to quantum memory from my grandparents living through the depression.

I was wondering what other collectors out there do with their hundreds
of pounds of 1920's-1930's records that are scratched, unpopular tunes
taking up space?  I get most of these for free or out of albums that I
buy just for the album and not the records inside.
