- Here's a batch of 200+ 78 RPM records from a local thrift store. Most of them original pressings dating from the mid to late 1930's on the Decca, Vocalion, Brunswick, Victor and Bluebird labels. These would've been tossed in the dumpster had I not rescued them. Overall in very nice condition and a lot of great music.

78's are the lead sinkers of audiophiles backs and my secret love for audio history just out of tin pan alley.
A really, really nice collection. REALLY NICE.....
Nice find Dave.Im glad you saved some good records from the trash
Glad you saved those 78's, good to see big band, and swing records get some love instead of tossed.
great video and some nice finds in there.. it is noticeable that several records you posted the A sides .. and the B sides were the more popular of the two.. very nice score... lots of those discs right up my street 🎶😊👏👍
So good to see you rescuing these. I have a box full of my Grandmothers records and I can’t throw them out..I don’t want them and have tried to find someone who collects ,, with no. Luck.. I’m in Newcastle NSW Australia and Can not even find a. Shop wanting them. Not enough collectors. Thanks for the vid. Enjoyed your respect and appreciation for the old records.
Fantastic score.Musical history.I love 78s. Sound better than most people think.Best wishes Terry uk
Well done, you have saved some good musical history and all presented real well thanks for posting.
I too inherited a bunch of 78's when I bought my house 19 years ago. Mine were mostly rock n roll early songs[Do you wanna dance,Bony Morone, Blueberry hill ] I saw 2 of the ones you exibited that caught my eye. The two by Glen Miller. Nevertheless you got some goodies.
That's weird. Was talking to Glenn L. yesterday from the old RCG Forum and he mentioned a time when he sold you some 78's. Then this video popped up today!
I live in Richmond, Indiana, (former) home of Gennett records. Any of those?
Are these shellac records?
How do you remove number stickers from labels?
There are two kinds of stickers to deal with, those with glue like adhesive requiring Goo Gone or naptha (lighter fluid) to soften and remove. Or the older water-based lick-and-stick style that require water or saliva to loosen. On these records, they were all lick-and-stick style. As I'm washing the records in a sink, the stickers absorb water and by rubbing my thumb on the sticker, it absorbs water more readily and becomes loose enough to remove. It takes a bit of care, too much pressure during removal can result in peeling or damage to the label.
