Sadly, given the average age of us 78-ophiles...this is something
we can expect to read all too often in the future...?! I would guess
that our "patron saint," Brian Rust, is also well along in years...?!
As I have often posted, it will be only a decade or two when the
youngest amongst us inherits "by default" all (or at least many?)
of our shellac archives...?!
In my own case, UCSB has already requested that I bequeath my
half-vast shellac archives their way upon my inevitable (but I hope
none TOO soon?!) "goin' to see Jesus!" However, THEY have to
provide the 18-wheeler(s) to move the aforesaid accumulation
from Oshawa, Ont'o., Canada to California, U.S.!
