Following on from the last posting, but to briefly recap:

Via complicated means (read: having them dumped on me) I’ve obtained a big chunk of my parents’ 78RPM records, some of which doubtless go back to their parents, and some of which are even stranger, higher RPM, possibly shellac and with spirals which go from inside to out.

[…]

I’ve decided to photograph them prior to disposal via some economic or beneficial means; I reason that it’s good to get them sorted out anyway, plus I ought to get sleeves for the ones that lack them.

Photos attached, commentary to follow; note also the preponderance and detail of copyright stamps throughout.

There are at least three Clara Butt records, and one with the conductor’s signature graven upon the disc.

Oh, and one complete Album. In the old sense of the word. “Aida.”

UPDATE: for some reason the entire set is not showing in this blog post. Shall have to fix that but until then here’s direct link to the entire set.
