[78-L] shelf order

[simmonssomer]

Some of these kids today carry that little machine with 20GB's and more 
storage for music.
In another year or so they'll be walking around with 30,000 titles in their 
back-packs.
They won't be talking to anybody by then. (They hardly do now.)
If they're not listening to music they'll be using their thumbs on their 
little hand-held typewriters.
4,000 records won't hardly be worth the time to say it.
Invest in batteries y'all.

I think it's funny how someone can say 4000 records is not a large 
collection. Granted, for people on this list it might be an average sized 
collection and we wouldn't think twice about it. But when I tell people how 
many records I have their jaw drops.

It's all relative...

Cheers,
Glenn

The majority of my collection is on shelves built into one wall. They re in 
alphabetical and number order. All record sleeves are labeled with the 
number, artist and songs for easy reading when flipping though them. On 
another built in shelf I have all my labels that I have only a few copies 
of. makes for easier locating. Next to those are my 8" records. Then comes 
my Victors I felt it was easier to put them by themselves and not down at 
floor level..
 My collection is not large (approximately 4000) because I'm not a record 
hoarder primarily interested in Dance bands both sweet and hot. Most cover 
the years 1927 through 1935 and at this stage condition is very important. 
Around 600 are British dance bands. Finally on the bottom shelf are my 10" 
albums and 12" singles.
