[78-L] Vogue Picture records

[Jim Whipkey]

Just because they are Vogues? I believe you are correct!  To satisfy my curiosity, I listed one of  the 4 picture records I  acquired last night, opening bid of $9.46.  In less then 3 hours,  have the opening bid.  Can't wait to see if  any more buyers surface. Still six days to go for the auction.  In any event, this opening bid  more than pays for all the records I got,  many of which I really want to keep.   Checked  recent purchases of my bidder and see he has bought for  pretty high prices other  records, music related memorabilia and.......two purchases of  victrola needles.   

Re: the other  acquisitions  from my auction this week,  just finished listening to 5 LPs of Jack Jones, trying to decide if  I  like them,  am just  enduring them,  or if  they are  truly forgettable!

Do not recall if I've ever seen any, but found a great web site explaining them, only made in 1946 and 1947. These are really neat, beautiful quality pictures on the records, sound quality is great. Search of E-Bay has duplicates of some of my four at what I regard as unbelievably high prices, not sold, just minimum opening bids. Anyone think these are worth up to $200.00 apiece or more?
