Record finds are always fun, its the thrill of the hunt, searching through an unpicked over well stored stash hoping you will find some lost treasures, so I will post some of the good ones I found yesterday. This lady called me, and asked me to please clean out all of her mothers records from the lst floor of her house. She had just signed a P&S agreement and was selling the house and needed desprerately to get the records out of there. Her mother was 100 years old, so I figured if I was lucky I might be some early stuff from the twenties and thirties mixed in with all of the 40's pop and Classicals, fortunately it wasn't a wasted trip, here are some of the better ones. All in great condition.
