Question #2.

I acquired a reasonably nice set of 78s that had been stored in a 
fellow's garage. So plenty of moldy smell, silver fish and the like 
crawling all over it. I don't think I will do much about the smell or 
the fact that the paper is rather dried out.

Surprisingly, it is in decent enough condition. The pockets look clean. 
I would like to know what I may do to prevent bringing other critters 
into the house, should there be eggs hiding down in the cracks 
somewhere. Perhaps placing it in a plastic baggie and freezing it for a 
few days in the freezer? Some other way of treating it?
