Vintage electronics

[Kathe]

Does anyone know someone who is interested in vintage stereo equipment and size 78 vinyl records?

[villagetinker]

I may be interested in both, I repair old equipment, and I have some 78's myself. I will send you a PM.

Were 78's ever made in vinyl?

None of mine are, I do not think so.

Before vinyl became standardized, records were made from a brittle material called shellac and were played at 78 RPM—only one song or five minutes per side! During World War II, the country experienced a shellac shortage.Feb 17, 2022
